Callum:  Hello, I'm Callum Robertson and this is Entertainment. This weekend, the 24th to 26  March a special cultural festival is being held in London. It's called theInside Out Festival and it is being held at a part of London called the SouthBank.
  The South Bank is so called because it describes an area that is on the southernside, or bank of the River Thames. Since Shakespeare's time it has been an areaof public entertainment and culture and now there are many cultural centresthere.
  Jude Woodward is the cultural advisor1 to the Mayor of London. She describessome of the places on the South Bank, what does she think of the area?
  JUDE WOODWARDI think that it's quite unique, particularly that combination around the South Bank that youhave a music venue2, the Hayward Gallery which is an art gallery, you have the National FilmTheatre, which is film, you have the National Theatre, then moving along you've got TateModern which has got one of the best collections of modern art, you've got the Globe whichgives you authentic3 Shakespeare productions. Where else in the world can you find such anincredible range of artistic4 and cultural things on offer. Nowhere else in the world has that andparticularly not on such a fantastic riverside setting.
  Callum:  That was Jude Woodward. She says that there are art galleries, theatres andmusic venues5. A venue is a place where something is held, where something isperformed. Jude thinks the area is unique – there is nowhere like it in the world– there are many cultural centres in one place with an attractive river location.
  Listen again.

  Callum:  This weekend the Inside Out festival is being held on the South Bank. What isit and why the name? Here's Jude Woodward again.
  JUDE WOODWARDThe festival's called Inside Out because all sorts of things which normally happen inside thebuildings are happening outside or we're being encouraged to see them outside or in differentplaces.
  Callum: Quite simply, what usually happens inside, will be happening outside. Listenagain:

  Callum:  So what are some of the things that will be happening? Let's go back to JudeWoodward.
  JUDE WOODWARDBorough Market is putting on some stalls down near Tower Bridge, we'll have an orchestralperformance outdoors, there'll incredible things going on all the way along the South Bankwith all those amazing cultural institutions that exist starting from the London Eye, to theSouth Bank Centre, the National Theatre, the film theatre, the Tate Modern, Coin Streetrunning down to Borough6 Market, the Globe Theatre, the Design Festival will all beparticipating to draw attention to just what a fantastic set of things there are to do everyweekend in that area of the city.
  Callum:  She says that one of the local markets, called Borough Market will be puttingsome stalls up near Tower Bridge. A stall is a shop in a market. There will alsobe orchestras playing outside, or outdoors. However it's not just on land thatthere will be performances as Jude Woodward explains.
  JUDE WOODWARDOne of the things which I love is the performances which are going to take place on the TateBoat which ferries you backwards7 and forwards across the river between Tate Britain andTate Modern. There'll be different bands and different boats all day, so if you buy a ticket togo on the boat you'll get a performance thrown in for free.
  Callum:  So performances are even being held on water, on one of the water ferriesbetween the two Tate museums, Tate modern and Tate Britain.
  So this weekend it looks as if the South Bank is the place to go for freeentertainment – though I just hope the weather will be a little warmer.
  Although spring technically8 began this week and the clocks change to BritishSummer Time this Sunday, it's still very very cold and more like winter. Well,I guess the cold weather can't last much longer, can it?
  That's all from this edition of Entertainment.
