The 2024 Olivier Awards are fast approaching on April 14. Ahead of one of the most exciting nights in theatreland, our critics – Aliya Al-Hassan, Mica Blackwell, Alexander Cohen, Katie Kirkpatrick, Kat Mokrynski, Gary Naylor, Kerrie Nicholson, Matthew Paluch and Christiana Rose share their thoughts about who and what will triumph on the night, as well as who should twin each category.

The Olivier Award-winning musical 'Matilda,' based on the beloved children’s book by Roald Dahl, is back on its feet and continues to tour Asia and the Middle East next. Its creative team and many of its original cast and crew thought they’d be back on the road in the latter part of 2020, but the pandemic has kept them a little longer.

The lineup  includes six beloved and blockbuster titles, three locally conceptualized and constructed London Proud productions that will go on to shine across the country, four Ontario premieres, and the always sold-out Jeans ‘n Classics concert series. Learn more about the full season here!

The nominations are in for this year's Olivier Awards! Among those nominated are Sunset Boulevard, Plaza Suite, The National Theatre, and many more. Check out the full list of nominations here!
