Brexit the Stage: What Next for British Theatre and Europe?

Saturday 22 April, 10.30 – 17.15

The Lydia & Manfred Gorvy Lecture Theatre, V&A Museum

On 23 June 2016 the UK voted to leave the EU. This symposium will explore what Brexit means for the theatre industry at home and abroad.  Bringing together performance practitioners, academics and policy makers who work in and between British and European stages, this day will celebrate our shared history, consider the opportunities and responsibilities of theatre in a post-Brexit society, and ask how we can continue to foster international relationships. As the UK enters unchartered territory, this event aims to contribute creatively and productively to conversations about the relationship between Britain and Europe, theatre and society.

£25, £20 concessions, £15 students

In collaboration with The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London and European Theatre Research Network, University of Kent
