Statement from Julian Bird, Chief Executive Society Of London Theatre & UK Theatre. Fingers crossed for 21 June 🤞 We've got the latest on the Prime Minister's announcement 👉 officiallondontheatre.com/ne…
We welcome the Government's roadmap announcement as the country takes the first steps towards easing lockdown - in particular, the news that theatre and live arts can resume performances for Step 3 with social distancing, potentially as early as 17 May. The real route back for the sector will be the Step 4 announcements hopefully enabling full auditoriums from 21 June. These dates are still subject to change, however, and even once confirmed it will take time for many of our theatres and productions to get back up and running. While they remain closed and as they return to full operation, we urge the Chancellor to continue with the financial support packages needed for businesses and individuals.
