Dancer, choreographer and director Gillian Lynne will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award at this month's Oliviers. In recognition of her work, we've got access to archive clips that show her in action throughout her career.

The Olivier Awards with MasterCard take place on Sunday 28 April, to be broadcast on television on ITV in an extensive highlights package that night, and live on radio on BBC Radio 2.

Hugh Bonneville and Sheridan Smith will host proceedings with voiceover by Julia McKenzie.

Guest presenters for the awards include Kim Cattrall, Lee Evans, Romola Garai, Lily James, Myleene Klass, Damian Lewis, Tim Minchin, Arlene Phillips, Daniel Radcliffe and David Suchet.

Theatre-lovers are invited to gather at the BBC Radio 2 Stage in Covent Garden Piazza from 4pm on the day for a free Olivier Awards celebration featuring live performances from top West End shows - including the four shortlisted BBC Radio 2 Audience Award nominees. The stage, hosted by BBC Radio 2 presenter Claudia Winkleman alongside West End leading man Michael Xavier, will feature performances from shows including Billy Elliot The Musical, Matilda The Musical, The Phantom Of The Opera, Wicked, Burn The Floor, Potted Potter and Some Like It Hip Hop with more still to be announced.
