#LoveTheatreDay is coming! Are you ready?
#LoveTheatreDay is upon us and kicks off tomorrow, Wednesday 18 November. Hurrah!
For 24 hours theatres, amateur groups, arts companies and audiences from across the UK take part in a social media celebration, sharing backstage access, live streams, Q&As and more with your favourite theatrical groups.
The campaign, which launched in 2014, caused a fantastic noise online last year and as a result won a Lovie Award. The day was live blogged on The Guardian’s culture page, sharing the best content created for the day, including this video from the English National Opera, explaining how to stage an opera.
How can you get involved tomorrow?
Discover a world of backstage access, deals and words from the stars via hashtag #LoveTheatreDay. The day will also be broken up into sections… see below:
10:00 – 12:00 #Backstage, see the teams that make the magic happen!
15:00-17:00 #AskATheatre pose your questions to the professionals
19:00 – 22:00 #Showtime take a virtual seat during a performance – from viewings to up to the minute live show tweeting.
Don’t miss a thing
We’ll be sharing our best interviews, videos and more from our theatre archives, as well as keeping you up to date with the latest theatre offers via @TicketmasterUK.
Plus keep an eye on #LoveTheatreDay, @CultureThemes and @GdnCulturePros (they’re great!).
