As BroadwayWorld previously reported, theatres are now allowed to reopen from today, 17 May, with social distancing. From 21 June, shows will be able to perform to full audiences.
To celebrate the return to live theatre, the Society of London Theatre (SOLT) has launched an outdoor advertising campaign, #BackOnStage.
Shows, stars, fans, and more are sharing their excitement for the return of live theatre on social media and we've rounded up their posts below!
