Description	The aim of this talk will be to review some aspects of the triangle of existing relations between N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories of class S, Hitchin’s moduli spaces (classical and quantised), and conformal field theory. My plan is to address the following two questions: (i) What’s the relevance of the (quantised) moduli spaces of flat connections for class S theories ? (ii) What’s the relation between the quantum theory of Hitchin’s moduli spaces and conformal field theory ?
