Conference 19: Centre Stage round-up

Conference 19: Centre Stage - artist and audience at the heart of theatres looked at theatres from the perspective of the people they are there to serve.

Fittingly the conference took place at Battersea Arts Centre, a venue with a rich social history, which engages widely with both artists and audiences in the development of the building and its activities.
