Behind the Curtain
Episode 581
Thursday, 9 April, 2026

For 13 years, Sir Alex has led one of the world’s most iconic cultural institutions through a period of extraordinary change. Brexit. A global pandemic that closed theatres overnight. A cost-of-living crisis reshaping audiences and audience behaviour. Few organisations have faced these pressures more intensely, or more visibly, than the Royal Ballet and Opera. In this wide-ranging conversation, he reflects on what it takes to steward an institution of immense history and global reputation through one of the most defining and difficult decades in its history. This event will be followed by a drinks reception at 8pm. Speaker: Sir Alex Beard, Chief Executive, Royal Ballet and Opera Chair: Nancy Durrant, culture journalist and broadcaster In partnership with: Royal Ballet and Opera
