According to this database, fewer than 8% of shows and events at this year's @edfringe centre People of Colour (calculated using the criterion that 50% or more of the performers or speakers on a particular stage are People of Colour). That's just 256 shows out of 3,317.

To fellow actors: The race to the bottom is real. The more we accept jobs like that, the less likely we will be able to make this career livable for many. Especially with AI on the rise. Value yourself, the industry, and your community of actors more.

Yes, it’s increased my hate for the government that has pushed these poor workers into obscene levels of hardship that they’re forced to strike

Tell us: have you been affected by the strikes? theguardian.com/uk-news/2022…

Why do we do the #FringeOfColour spreadsheet? At the Fringe, shows by Artists of Colour have made up only about 6% of the programme in previous years. At the 2020 International Festival, less than 10% of all the performers were People of Colour. So it can be hard to find them...
