SOLT & UK Theatre welcome the Great British Theatres Awards

SOLT & UK Theatre statement in support of the Great British Theatres Awards

The Society of London Theatre and UK Theatre welcome the launch of the Great British Theatres Awards by Theatres Trust, a timely new initiative celebrating theatre buildings and spaces as vital cultural and civic assets across the UK.

Hannah Essex, Co-CEO of SOLT & UK Theatre, said:

“Our theatre buildings are not only places where performances happen. They are part of the social, cultural, and economic fabric of communities across the UK. At a time when many theatre buildings are facing growing financial and operational pressures, it is right that these awards celebrate both the spaces themselves and the people who sustain, adapt, and reimagine them for the future.”
