# National Theatre, Nigeria

The National Theatre, Nigeria is the primary centre for the performing arts in Nigeria. It shares the same architectural design as the Palace of Culture and Sports in Varna, Bulgaria, and it is four times bigger. The monument is located in Iganmu, Surulere, Lagos. Its construction was completed in 1976 in preparation for the Festival of Arts and Culture (FESTAC) in 1977.
In July 2024, President Bola Tinubu renamed the National Arts Theatre in Iganmu, Lagos, in honor of Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka.

## Design

Construction of The National Theatre was started by the military regime of General Yakubu Gowon and completed during the military regime of Olusegun Obasanjo. By the year 2021, this edifice had been run by a number of management teams with heads such as Jimmy Folorunso Atte (1991 – August 1999), Prof Babafemi A. Osofisan (2000 – 2004), Dr. Ahmed Parker Yerima (2006 – Aug 2009), Kabir Yusuf (2009 – 2016), George Ufot, (Late) Dr. (Mrs.) Stella Oyedepo, Sunday Enessi Ododo (2020–present)
The National Theatre exterior was designed, shaped and built to look like a military hat. It originally has capacity for a 5,000-seat Main Hall with a collapsible stage, and two capacity cinema halls, all of which are equipped with facilities for simultaneous translation of 8 languages; among others.
The National Theatre, Nigeria was designed and constructed by Bulgarian construction company (Techno Exporstroy). Alhaji Sule Katagum was a co-owner and also their chairman. It resembles the Palace of Culture and Sports in Varna, Bulgaria (completed in 1968); the National Theatre Lagos, Nigeria being the bigger of the two.

## Controversy

In 2005, President Olusegun Obasanjo announced plans to privatise the National Theatre. This sparked controversy amongst Nigerian entertainers and playwrights like Wole Soyinka On 30 December 2014, it was reported that the National Theatre has been sold to a Dubai-based conglomerate for the sum of 31.5 billion naira, and that the building will be converted to a duty-free shopping centre.

# Tropic of Ruislip

Tropic of Ruislip is a 1974 novel by British author Leslie Thomas. It explores the British class divide and themes such as wife swapping. The title refers to Ruislip, one of London's outer suburbs, but the book is set in another suburb, Carpenders Park.
The book sold well, although Thomas' later work never matched the success of his first novel, The Virgin Soldiers, published in 1966.

## Setting

The book is set in the suburbs of London, specifically "Plummers Park", which is apparently a fictional version of Carpenders Park, where the author lived in the 1960s. Carpenders Park railway station is on a commuter railway line. In the book a railway line marks a physical and social divide between a council estate and middle class housing, mirroring to some extent the real-life division between Carpenders Park and South Oxhey.
Other locations in the book include Watford, where the male protagonist Andrew is employed by a local newspaper.

## Adaptation

It was adapted for television in 1979 as "Tropic" with a cast including Ronald Pickup.

# Myths to Live By

Myths to Live By is a 1972 book, a collection of essays, originally given as lectures at the Cooper Union Forum, by mythologist Joseph Campbell between 1958 and 1971. The work has an introduction by Johnson E. Fairchild.
The deep power of myth on the inner, spiritual lives of human beings throughout the ages (including our own age) is the common theme running throughout all the essays in the collection. Campbell explains the differences between western and oriental myths and rites. He shows how fundamental universal thoughts are adapted to local requirements of legitimation. A typical form of adaptationof the hero is the American image of the lone rider who dispels evil.

# M. J. Cleary

Michael James Cleary (September 23, 1877 – February 21, 1947) was an American lawyer, insurance executive, and Republican politician from Lafayette County, Wisconsin. He was the 9th Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner and served two terms in the Wisconsin State Assembly (1907 & 1909). Later he was president of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. His name was often abbreviated as M. J. Cleary.

## Biography and career

Cleary was born on September 23, 1877, in Blanchardville, Wisconsin or Moscow, Wisconsin. He attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
Cleary was elected to the Assembly in 1906 and re-elected in 1908. He was a Republican.
He was an attorney, and worked in insurance and banking in Blanchardville, Wisconsin. He also spent two years as the Chairman of the County Board of Lafayette County, Wisconsin.
He served as Commissioner of Insurance from July 1, 1915 to April 10, 1919. During World War I, he organized a "far reaching and effective food conservation campaign" with a "corps of 125 insurance agents."
In 1919, he assumed the presidency of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. He also served as a member of the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin and of the Board of Governors of Marquette University.
He died in Milwaukee on February 21, 1947.

## Personal life and family

M. J. Cleary married Bonnie B. Blanchard of Blanchardville—she was a granddaughter of Alvin Blanchard, who founded Blanchardville. They had at least three children.
Their eldest daughter, Catherine Blanchard Cleary, was a pioneer woman in business, graduating from the University of Wisconsin Law School and serving as the first female board member of General Motors, AT&T, Kraft Foods, Northwestern Mutual, and Kohler Co. After the 1952 United States presidential election, she challenged president-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower to appoint a woman as Treasurer of the United States. Eisenhower responded by appointing Ivy Baker Priest, and then named Cleary as assistant treasurer. Cleary served less than a year in that role, however—she determined that the role of assistant treasurer was not needed and had the position abolished. She was subsequently appointed assistant to the Secretary of the Treasury, George M. Humphrey. She retired at the end of her business career as chairman, president, and C.E.O. of the First Wisconsin Trust Co.
# Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters

"Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" is a song written by English musician Elton John and songwriter Bernie Taupin, and performed by John. It was released on the 1972 album Honky Château. The lyrics conveyed Taupin's take on New York City after hearing a gun go off near his hotel window during his first visit to the city. The song's lyrics were partly inspired by Ben E. King's "Spanish Harlem," written by Jerry Leiber and Phil Spector, in which he sings "There is a rose in Spanish Harlem."
The song was also released as the B-side of the "Harmony" UK single in 1980.

## Personnel

* Elton John – vocals, acoustic piano
* Davey Johnstone – electric, acoustic and slide guitars, mandolin
* Dee Murray – bass guitar

## Reception

Allmusic critic Stewart Mason retrospectively noted that the song is "less saccharine than many similar Elton John and Bernie Taupin ballads" and praised the "somewhat uncharacteristic emotional directness" of its lyrics.
Rolling Stone magazine's Jon Landau praised the song when it was released, writing:
   "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" shows how much John can really do in the space of a single cut. Using minimal instrumentation and singing one of Taupin's most direct lyrics, John effortlessly reveals the myth beneath the myth of "... a rose in Spanish Harlem." He expresses his involvement with the city, his need for its people, and his final desire to be alone through one of his best tunes, simplest arrangements, and most natural vocal performances.

## Performances

Elton John himself called the song "one of my all-time favourites" when introducing it at his 60th-birthday concert in New York's Madison Square Garden, as he performed it more than a hundred times in concert.
John also delivered a heartfelt rendition of this song at The Concert for New York City at Madison Square Garden on 20 October 2001. The concert was meant primarily as a tribute for family members and fellow workers of New York's Fire and Police and Emergency Medical Services departments, who had been participating in the ongoing recovery efforts at the demolished World Trade Center complex following the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001. John dedicated the song to the emergency workers and their families, as well as to New York City.

## In popular culture

The song was used in the film Almost Famous, in a scene in New York City, highlighting the loneliness of Kate Hudson's character, who overdoses on Quaaludes and champagne.

## Sequel

A more upbeat sequel to the song called "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters (Part Two)" was recorded 16 years later for John's album Reg Strikes Back.
