These past days have been especially difficult for the Scottish theatre community. We are extending our solidarity to survivors and everyone who has been impacted by sexual harassment within our industry.

We& #39;ve been working with the wider Quines community on ways to take action & in recent months have been developing a co-written sexual harassment awareness campaign. For longlasting change to happen, it must be collaborative & we will continue to bring people into this work
