Let Us Watch - Support cinemas, theatres and comedy clubs.

Petition Details

Extend funding to cinemas, theatres and comedy clubs as part of the £1.57bn support package announced by the government for Britain's arts and culture sector to survive the hit from the pandemic. #LetUsWatch

Additional Information

The government has failed to provide specific support to cinemas, theatres and comedy clubs. Covid-19 has hit hard on the nightlife sector having a major impact due to the suspension of mass gatherings. Followed by unclear guidelines and a lack of commitment from the government, this has contributed to growing uncertainty within the arts sector, putting at risk millions of jobs. The government must make clear its commitment to ensuring the dance community survives the pandemic. #LetUsWatch
