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.

For six performances only, Arthur Smith (right) is bringing his 1995 Edinburgh triumph, his own 42-minute Hamlet, to the West End. In the words of the great man himself, this is "a profound meditation on the nature of depression, despair and revenge. I adopt a cubist approach to the text and the result is annoyingly pretentious but not very long." There is also a special treat in the shape of Sally Phillips's Ophelia.

There are 20 pairs of tickets on offer to Independent readers for the first night of Arthur Smith's Hamlet at the Duke of York's Theatre, London, WC2. Call the box-office on 0171-836 5122, quoting this offer.
