Our offer evolves through dialogue with what’s happening in that sector. Gathered here are the main recurring formats within which we share and develop content which strategically responds to opportunities and challenges in the UK’s new musical theatre landscape. We work in partnership with our members, funders and industry peers to make improvements, nurture useful connections, and advocate for best practice.
