Established in 1982 and based in the City of London, Walton & Parkinson is the UK's leading specialist insurance broker to the theatre world.

The best partnerships are based on shared experience so it's with confidence that we describe ourselves as your ideal partner to manage the risks faced by theatre owners and producers.

Joint Managing Directors, Richard Walton and Cliff Parkinson, can contribute an informed and independent perspective.  As a former producer of West End, regional and touring shows, and with continuing involvement in theatrical investment and production companies, Richard understands the needs of the theatre business from the sharp end. 

Cliff is a seasoned insurance professional with underwriting and commercial broking experience at a senior level who has been advising the theatre profession for over 25 years.  Back-up comes from a dedicated team of experts who provide a proactive and client-focussed service that includes in-house claims handling.

In addition to wide regional coverage with theatre clients from Blackpool to Brighton and Manchester to Margate, we are likely to be insuring two-thirds of the shows running in London.
