Freelancers make up 70% of our industry, many of whom haven't received any Gov support. They need help now. #TheatreArtistsFund provides emergency support for theatre workers across the UK. All donations are welcome, so if you can, please visit theatreartists.fund to donate.

We are still fundraising for the Equity Benevolent Fund. Very few actors are going back to work. They are still not getting anything or very little from this govt. Please support them through this very difficult time of no theatre and no work!
