The actual Olivier awards happen at the Royal Opera House but for those who aren't able to rub shoulders with the celebs in person, ITV are televising it live in Covent Garden Piazza and broadcasting a highlights programme shortly after the Awards ceremony. Plus BBC Radio 2 will be broadcasting a two hour special feature of backstage interviews, speeches and performances from the night at 6pm on Saturday 19th April.

Who judges it? Each year the Olivier Award winners are decided after intense and passionate debate from a mixture of distinguished industry professionals, theatre luminaries and members of the public, all who share a passion for the dramatic wealth of talent that London theatre offers.
