The Independent Recommends: Theatre
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.YOU COULD read Once, a fairytale from Russian clown troupe Derevo, as an allegory about the triumph of harsh reality over fantasy in the land of the tumbling rouble. Better to admire the extraordinary attention to detail in their silent performances and make a childish wish that they stay this good forever.

The Abbey Theatre's production of Tarry Flynn (right) adapted from Patrick Kavanagh's novel, is an affectionate, boisterous affair. The cast impersonate animals, the farmyard set has a mind of its own and in the middle of all the Oirish conviviality is James Kennedy's young Tarry, burning to be free.
