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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Actor-comedians James Poulter and Graham Duff reckon to have discovered the secret of big box-office: free drugs. Their new show will offer punters the chance to experiment with Herbal Ecstasy, a legal drug which they'll be road-testing in the name of theatre at BAC next week. Lovingly researched, The A-Z of Drugs will present volunteers with a choice selection of narcotics - reindeer urine, toad skin and cheap lager will all be on hand for snorting/smoking/ mainlining purposes - and Poulter and Duff will in addition be explaining which part of his anatomy Errol Flynn used to snort coke off. They also plan to present an educational glove-puppet show featuring Kurt Cobain and Keith Chegwin. And, lest you doubt it, be informed that the boys' interest in mind-expansion is purely professional: Duff has previously written a solo show entitled Burroughs! (as in William S) and Poulter's new sitcom project for Channel 4 goes by the name of Wrecked.

BAC, Lavender Hill, Battersea SW11 (0171-223 2223) 9pm Tue 2-Sat 7 May, £5/£4 (pay what you can Tue)
