The Show will be complemented by the Theatre Engineering and Architecture Conference, which takes place every four years. This provides a forum for theatre operators and technicians to examine the big issues in stage engineering, lighting, auditorium design, video and audio, reflecting what will be seen at the ABTT exhibition itself.
Show Director, Roger Fox, commented, "Like any sector of the economy the theatre business has been going through difficult times over the last year, but the 2009 ABTT Show was a great success despite the tube strike, with over 110 exhibiting companies, with several new names alongside long-time supporters of the event. All the signs are very positive that the Show in 2010 will be even more successful - especially if there are no rail strikes at the same time."
