On Wednesday 20th April, Giles Watling MP, Member of Parliament for Clacton and Chairman of the APPG for Theatre, chaired an evidence session on skills and the future of the workforce in the theatre industry.
Several parliamentarians and industry representatives discussed the importance of the sector, but also the many challenges facing it right now. It was agreed by everyone in attendance that support must be made for theatre if the sector is going to survive post-Covid.
