Shows closed, performances cancelled and huge uncertainty for what will happen in Jan… we are facing a de facto cultural lockdown. OVC are working with campaign groups, Unions and industry reps to ensure livelihoods of arts freelancers are being considered by Government.

We need action now to protect our cultural sector and the people who work in it.
ACTION: replenish the @ace_national CRF Emergency Response Fund, and allow freelancers to access it with evidence of cancelled contracts.

Another difficult day for friends & colleagues in theatre. I’m sad that so many are now facing further uncertainties & additional anxieties after a tremendously difficult 15 months. I feel for those now rethinking plans, or simply wondering how they survive this. Brutal.

1/2 PLEASE @DCMSArts @DCMS. We understand the delay but need clarity on what performing arts guidelines might be issued in stage 4. Tomorrow our board will have to make a call affecting over £120k of freelance musicians’ earnings. We’d like to protect as many of those jobs as

A brilliant second evidence session for @ProspectUnion @CommunityUnion @fsb_policy enquiry into the future of self-employment.
Thanks to @ExcludedUK, @ForgottenLtd, @onevoicecmpgn & @ForgottenPAYE for sharing their thoughts & experiences.

Yesterday, I sat as a Commissioner on the @ProspectUnion and @CommunityUnion self-employment support inquiry this afternoon. So many people have been overlooked and ignored by the Chancellor - in all sectors and in all parts of the UK

Q: Can arts venues open for rehearsals and to stream performances?
A: Yes. Arts venues are places of work, so people can come into them for work, if it cannot be undertaken from home. This includes rehearsals and performance. Audiences are not permitted.

If social distancing for audiences is here to stay, @OliverDowden and @RishiSunak will need to pay for the the empty seats. #SeatOutToHelpOut There is no simpler way to make venues viable again and help rebuild the creative economy. @onevoicecmpgn thestage.co.uk/opinion/theat…

Wishing our friends @BristolOldVic huge success with their #SeatOutToHelpOut. Seat-matching = performances/how to cope with social distancing/audience safety/much needed work for our freelance workforce... Please make it part of the plan for the cultural recovery @DCMSArts
21 Oct 2020
We’re only allowed to sell 1/3 of our seats right now, so today we’re launching #SeatOuttoHelpOut.
Help us by donating to keep an empty seat warm – for a night, a week, a month, or even until we fully reopen!

It’s good news for venues, organisation and institutions – but it’s not putting the workforce back to work or money in their pockets.
MU General Secretary Horace Trubridge spoke to @NME about the Culture Recovery Fund, #SEISS and why #MusicDeservesBetter

Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden suggests theatres could be given a 'not before date' for reopening of March/April.
He says the announcement of such a date will come at least three months prior to give venues time to prepare.
