A producer who was at the helm of a theatre for close to a quarter of a century has died at the age of 72.
Peter Wilson was chief executive of the Theatre Royal in Norwich from 1992 to 2016 and won an Olivier Award for his production of Woman in Black.
Lights at the venue will be dimmed for two minutes on Tuesday in his honour.
The theatre said everyone had been "saddened" by the news and sent its "sincere condolences and deepest sympathy to his family and loved ones".
In its statement, current chief executive Stephen Crocker said Wilson's tenure "marked a defining period in our history".
