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.One of Poland's hottest political topics – abortion and the Catholic Church – drives 22-year-old Anna Wakulik's extraordinary three-hander.
Caroline Steinbeis's superb production releases and focuses the play's fierce energies as it veers between vivid interaction and confessional commentary. Not an "issue" play in a narrow sense, it plunges us into the messy predicament of a gynaecologist who performs illegal "procedures" and a 17-year-old impregnated by consensual sex with a priest.
Owen Teale, Max Bennett and Sinead Matthews are brilliant in this resoundingly recommended UK premiere.
