- Society of West End Theatre Managers
- Society of West End Theatre The Society of London Theatre (SOLT) is a British trade association for West End theatre in London. It was founded in 1908 as Society of West End Theatre Managers, becoming the Society of West End Theatre in 1975, and then changing to its current name in 1994. SOLT is a not-for-profit organisation which speaks on behalf of the theatre owners, producers, and managers of all the major commercial and grant-aided theatres in London. SOLT shares an office with UK Theatre, its sister organisation.
As well as advocating for the interests of its members, SOLT promotes theatre through activities including the Laurence Olivier Awards, the TKTS ticket booth, Theatre Tokens, a fortnightly printed listings guide and website. The organisation also administers the audience development initiatives Kids Week and Official London Theatre's New Year Sale, and runs events including the 'behind-the-scenes' career fair, TheatreCraft, and West End LIVE, alongside Westminster City Council. SOLT also supports a number of theatrical charities including Stage One and Mousetrap Theatre Projects.
