他认为人们去往伦敦剧院是因为精彩的演出以及伦敦戏剧街足够的底气。它认为自己擅长上演世界一流的戏剧。这些演出是世界上最好的!
So that’s why people are prepared to pay lots of money to go to the theatre.Some shows are sell-outs and others transfer to New York’s Broadway, where they’re also drawing, or pulling in, big audiences.
所以这就是为何人们愿意花很多钱去剧院的缘故。有些演出的票已售完,其他人则去往纽约百老汇,那里也吸引了大量观众。
But now some people are worried that this year’s London Olympics will have a negative effect on theatres.People might favour seeing sport over going to see a show.
但现在有人担心今年的伦敦奥运会会对剧院有负面影响。相比看演出,人们可能会更喜欢看运动会。
Theatre owner and impresario, Andrew Lloyd Webber, thinks this might cause theatres to close. Would that really happen?
剧院老板和经理安德鲁.劳埃德.韦伯认为这可能导致剧院关闭。这真的会发生吗?
Well it’s a gloomy prospect but not everyone agrees. Adam Spiegel is the producer of the musical Midnight Tango and he thinks the Olympics will actually be good for London theatre. How does he describe London?
它前景很暗淡,但并不是每个人都同意这一观点。Adam Spiegel是音乐剧《午夜探戈》的制作人,他认为奥运会将给伦敦剧院带来益处。他是怎样描述伦敦的呢?
I think we don’t know how the Olympics will affect the theatre because the Olympics haven’t been held in a theatre capital since they were last in London. And think the World generally believes that coming to London involves going to the theatre, going and taking in a show.
我认为我们不确定奥运会将如何影响剧院,因为奥运会自上次在伦敦举行之后再没有在一座剧院首都举办过。而且我认为世界人民普遍认为来伦敦就要去剧院看演出。
So he’s not sure about the effect of the Olympics on what he calls a ’theatre capital’.That’s a city which has a thriving theatre district. But he’s confident that people visiting London will still want to take in a show.
所以他不确定奥运会对他所谓剧院首都的影响。这是一座拥有繁荣剧院地区的城市。但他确信游览伦敦的人们也想观看一场演出。
Yes, it’s one of those things you really have to do on a visit to London.Anyway Amy, it’s time now to see if you’re confident about your answer to today’s question. Earlier I asked you, what is the name of London’s oldest West End theatre? Is it:a) London Coliseumb) The Palace Theatrec) Theatre Royal
是的,这是你游览伦敦时必须要做的一件事情。不管怎样,艾米,是时候揭晓今天问题的答案了。我的问题是,伦敦西区最古老剧院的名称是什么?答案是:a)伦敦大剧院b)皇宫剧院c)皇家剧院
And I said London Coliseum.
我选择的是伦敦大剧院。
And unfortunately you are wrong. The answer is actually the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. The first venue on the site opened in 1662. That first theatre burnt down but a new one was built and there’s been one on the site ever since.OK Amy we’ve just got time for you to remind us of today’s words.
很遗憾你的答案是错误的。正确答案是皇家剧院德鲁里巷。其第一个场馆于1662年开始营业。第一个场馆被烧毁了,但一座新剧院拔地而起。好的,艾米,你来提示一下我们今天的词汇吧。
