Clare appointed Park Theatre Chair

ANTHONY CLARE has been named Park Theatre's new Chair.

He takes over from NIGEL PANTLING, who held the role at the London theatre for seven years.

Clare is a lawyer, member of the Society of London Theatre (SOLT) and a former trustee and Deputy Chair of Leicester's Curve Theatre.

"As we emerge from the ravages of the last two years, Park Theatre’s mission to connect, engage and enthral its audiences and community has never been more essential," he said.
