The pandemic has affected many sectors of the global economy, especially Theatre - from the West End to Broadway.

This weekend on Talking Business - The pandemic has affected many sectors of the global economy especially Theatre. From the West End to Broadway - live stage productions have all but shut down. So will fresh lockdowns be the final curtain or could the crisis lead to more of us swapping the stalls for the sofa to watching performing arts from the comfort of our homes? The President of the Broadway League, Charlotte St. Martin, and the director of the Olivier Awards, Julian Bird, who is Chief Executive of the Society of London Theatre, debate the future of theatre. We also speak to Alexander Lacik, the boss of jewellery giant Pandora, about the impact of global store closures and the future of retail in the face of coronavirus.
