Show director Roger Fox said, "I am so pleased that the exhibitors have responded so positively to our determination to make the ABTT 2012 Theatre Show an immediate success in its new home. Visitor registrations continue to be buoyant and we have a growing waiting list of would be exhibitors. The signs are very good for a bumper event."
Close to 100 exhibitors will be offering a wealth of products, services and advice to practitioners, designers and technicians involved in the theatre community. This year, the Theatre Show is promising to draw crowds from an even broader collection of interest groups including professional and amateur theatre, educational establishments, and live entertainment in all its forms.
Sustainability, carbon footprints and energy efficiency is on everyone's agenda, and The ABTT 2012 Theatre Show promises to be a focal point for many who are looking for the latest 'green' ideas, especially delegates to the Theatres Trust conference Delivering Sustainable Theatres - the challenge of achieving the triple bottom line, which is being held conveniently for delegates on the day before the ABTT 2012 Theatre Show, and on the same side of London. Sustainability will be a theme for many exhibitors, with several manufacturers announcing new developments in low energy solutions and LED light sources in particular.
