Arts and Entertainment are a fundamental part of life.
Without the arts it will impacted on peoples lives mentally and for some financially.
The United Kingdom has some of the best talent in the World and to lose this would be a travesty.

The arts and entertainment industry is massive and must get back to work. You cannot ignore this sector. If clothes shops can open, so can this sector.

The Performing Arts is not just a huge part of the UK's cultural history, it's also some of the best in the world. It creates so many jobs and draws in tourists so giving it a boost now will help the economy enormously further down the track. If tiny New Zealand can support its artists, surely the great UK can!

I love shows, concerts, events and feel this is an area that’s been forgotten as we’re trying to get back to some kind of normal after COVID.

As a working practitioner within the arts industry it deeply worries me that we face losing an entire industry. It’s far more beneficial to the U.K. in the long term to support the arts in this great time of need.

The performing arts are vital not only financially but for the health of the cultural landscape of the UK. It is vital that the Government acts swiftly with clear guidelines for the survival of the theatre industry and all the performing arts.
