Live Tweeting: Heart of the West End conference

As part of The Heart of the West End conference at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket, a panel of leading theatre professionals is debating 'The Future of the West End'.

Comprising Whatsonstage.com Award-winning playwright Richard Bean, Jack Bradley, literary associate at Sonia Friedman Productions, chief executive of the Society of London Theatre Julian Bird and Guardian theatre critic Lyn Gardner, the panel is chaired by Variety's Karen Fricker.

Whatsonstage.com's Terri Paddock and Andrew Girvan are covering the event live on Twitter (below), and discussion will subsequently released as a podcast on the website.

The Heart of the West End conference, jointly organised by the Department of Drama & Theatre at Royal Holloway in association with the Theatre Royal, Haymarket and the V&A, is a two-day multi-disciplinary conference on the past, present and future of London’s Commercial Theatre in the West End.

It takes place at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket - currently home to Bean's adaptation of Carlo Goldoni's classic 18th-century Italian comedy The Servant of Two Masters, One Man, Two Guvnors - and brings together some of the UK’s leading academics, theatre owners, makers, managers, performers for industry-led roundtable discussions and a variety of academic papers.
