"£849 million[for]a single month of Eat Out to Help Out...which contributed to the rise in Covid, the next lockdown & the wipeout of the panto season... one month of EOtoHO was almost equivalent to two whole years of arts funding in the current round." thestage.co.uk/opinion/the-n…

Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas. I am approaching this with anthropological precision. Here are a few observations.

Imagine seeing furlough has been extended days after you got made redundant because your employer thought it was ending

Worth remembering: furlough was due to end today and firms have already made decisions accordingly.

Following the PM’s announcement on further restrictions across the country we have decided to extended the furlough scheme for a further month covering 80% of employees’ wages.

They’ve had 3 hours delay, the slides don’t fit the screen and you can’t even read the text it’s so small. Shame that stage managers aren’t viable? We’d have sorted that right out, and gone up on time 😔

The Theatre Industry is dying, and it’s dying now. Not everyone likes theatre, but if you watch Film/TV this is going to affect you, because much of what & who you watch had their origins in theatre, whether it’s Fleabag or the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games [THREAD]

Following this shocking and unprecedented period of uncertainty, we will need the relief, escapism, stories and community that only live theatre offers, and I am determined that SFP will return stronger than ever, ready to welcome back our audiences. #SeeYouSoon #sf (2/2).

As you will have no doubt seen, in the last 72 hours, I have had to suspend all of our productions across the globe. This has been a heart-breaking but necessary action to ensure our world, and those who are most vulnerable, remain as healthy as possible. (1/2)

Tonight is an incredibly special evening as we prepare to open the doors for the packed house at the first preview of #TomStoppard's new play @LeopoldstadtLDN. It's time to share the extraordinary work that has been created by this outstanding company. leopoldstadtplay.com
