These are theatres that do not produce their own original work, they host other people or companies' productions, these are usually commercial productions. The majority of the theatres situated in London's West End are receiving theatres, these are usually owned by commercial producers. A receiving theatre is usually run by a small management team that will hire additional staff to suit the productions that are running at that time.
Producing Theatres
These are theatres that mostly are theatre companies who make and produce their own original shows. They have a significant amount of staff that cover a range of production departments such as lighting, sound and costume. Producing theatres often set a lower ticket price compared to receiving theatres. The national theatre is an example of this type of theatre.
