Olivier Award nominees and winners to take part in Bargain Hunt special

The BBC will mark its role as broadcast partner of the 50th anniversary Olivier Awards with a range of associated programming, including a special edition of Bargain Hunt.

The episode will feature a cast made up of previous Olivier Award nominees and winners, bringing together theatre practitioners from across different disciplines. The programme will also include a look behind the scenes at a West End theatre.

The special will form part of the BBC’s wider coverage connected to the anniversary year of the Olivier Awards, which takes place at the Royal Albert Hall on Sunday 12 April.

The Bargain Hunt episode sits alongside the BBC’s broader arts output linked to the awards, reflecting the ongoing relationship between the broadcaster and the UK theatre industry.
