Description
Event 006 took place on the set of Standing at the Sky’s Edge – the Olivier award-winning musical about Park Hill, Sheffield. The panel included Leanne Cloudsdale (founder of Concrete Communities), Catherine Croft (Chair of the 20th Century Society), Sujata Burman (London Design Festival) and Ben Stones (SATSE set designer). Standing at the Sky’s Edge has been celebrated as a ‘heartfelt exploration of the power of community’. Through open dialogue, the panel members unraveled their own thoughts about the life-cycle of post-war architecture – in particular, social housing, and tried to unpick the power of the place we call ‘home’.
