The Barbican Centre has always been a centre of excellence, showcasing the finest theatre, exhibitions and music, and with the opening of the 2 new cinema screens in beech Street, there really is no need to venture further afield.

My first visit to the Barbican and it is easy to get to where ever you may be in London. The sign posting is very good, particularly from the tube station.

We attended a Degree Conferral in the Wonderful Theatre of the Barbican Centre. The Theatre, which has it's own Car - Park has catering facilities and a bar. Well worth a visit - either to walk around or attend a show
