THEATRE: COMING ATTRACTIONS
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.Ooh er, missus. It's a National nightmare. Antony Sher has withdrawn from Terry Johnson's forthcoming Carry On comedy Cleo, Camping, Emmanuelle and Dick. According to an insider, the actors playing Kenneth Williams and Barbara Windsor gave "uncanny" impersonations at the first read-through, leading Sher to believe himself miscast as Sid James. He has been replaced by Geoffrey Hutchings. Furthermore, a knee injury has forced Alan Bates to retire from Antony and Cleopatra. Helen Mirren will now play the Queen of the Nile opposite Alan Rickman (right).
