Who We Are & What We Do

Based in the heart of Covent Garden, Society of London Theatre (SOLT) & UK Theatre are the membership bodies for the theatre sector, representing theatre producers, managers, owners and operators.

We have a shared staff team working together to deliver our joint vision and mission for our two organisations.

Our vision – the world we want to see – is a dynamic, sustainable and world-class theatre sector.

Our mission – what we do as an organisation – is to champion theatre and support our members to thrive.

In order to deliver on our vision and mission we have three joint priority areas for both organisations. These bring together our membership services, advocacy campaigns, audience initiatives and major events and awards.

Our three joint priority areas are:

• Membership: Developing a growing, engaged and united membership
• Audiences: Increasing engagement with theatre
• Advocacy: Create the conditions for theatres to thrive

Our Values

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We are committed to putting diversity, equity and inclusion at the heart of everything we do. We do this through recruiting from the widest spectrum of channels, constantly reviewing our policies and procedures to ensure they are fit for purpose and giving all our staff a voice. Our mission to produce a skilled, diverse and productive workforce for now and the future is crucial to our success as an organisation.
