Stock of this essential book - the first new edition in five years and now including material previously contained in the Model National Standard Conditions for Places of Entertainment - can be found on the ABTT's Stand, A53, at ExCeL London, from this Sunday 6 October, at a reduced rate, held for all four days of the show.
Edited by David Adams and published by the Association of British Theatre Technicians, the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health, the District Surveyors Association and the Institute of Licensing, the book sets out the physical standards for buildings, their equipment and the good management of the premises so as to provide for the safety of the performers, staff and the public in premises used for entertainment. It is intended for the use of both responsible authorities and licensees alike as a guide to good practice for anyone concerned with the building, maintenance and operation of places of entertainment.
The ABTT is also participating in the PLASA Professional Development Programme, presenting two seminars.
