COMEDY: THE BEST OF THE REST
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Leandre
What with the West End revival of Slava Polunin's Snowshow and the arrival of Leandre in London, this is turning into the Year of the Clown. Leandre, a rubbery Spanish performer with a suitcase full of outlandish props, had a hit at the Edinburgh Festival last year with his show, Leandre: Clown? Cabaret? Silent Movie?, which he is now bringing to London.
