So @RishiSunak and @OliverDowden
I’m trying to be angry. But I can’t. I’m exhausted. Like every other theatre ED, AD or CEO across the country. We’re exhausted from having to argue for our brilliant sector. Tired from having to financially model on sand. 1/4

Worn out from doing our best to look after our teams. Teams who are being tested beyond anything we can protect them from. From wishing we could do more for our extended family of freelancers, our young people, our communities. 2/4

From hoping audiences will eventually be able to (and choose to) return. From worrying that we’re missing something. That we should be, could be, doing more, planning more, caring more, re-imagining more, tweeting more! 3/4

We’re a resilient bunch. We’re supporting each other. But we’re knackered. And at the moment a lot of us are having to imagine the unimaginable.. oh and P.S. an awful lot of us are trying to homeschool and pretend we’re not tired of that too! Action. Investment. Dates. Please 4/4
