The Olivier Awards take place on Sunday evening - and you can follow all the news here!

The 2010 Olivier Awards will take place on 21 March 2010 at the Grosvenor House Hotel, with Spring Awakening, Enron, Jerusalem and A Little Night Music among the standouts of the season with the most nominations. The Laurence Olivier Awards were established in 1976 as The Society of West End Theatre Awards, and Lord Olivier agreed to have his name associated with them in 1984. The Awards are run by The Society of London Theatre but are adjudicated by panels that are equally made up of members of the theatregoing public and experts chosen for their knowledge and professional experience.

For the first time, the prestigious Laurence Olivier Awards will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 2. The awards celebrate the very best of London theatre and are the highlight of the theatrical year.
