The Theatre Artists Fund is now closed for the current round of applications. The Theatre Artists Fund has been set up to provide emergency support for theatre workers and freelancers across the UK. It is for theatre professionals who are in need of urgent and critical financial support due to the devastating impact of Covid-19 on the theatre sector.

Thank you to all our donors, and especially our headline supporters Netflix, The Estate of Sir Peter and Lady Saunders, Backstage Trust, Arts Council England and John Gore & Broadway.com.

We invite industry figures, corporations, charitable trusts and individual theatre goers alike who care deeply about the future of the theatre industry in the UK to donate.

The more donations we receive, the more people we can help through this difficult time.

Our ambition for the fund is to provide short-term relief for hundreds of theatre workers and freelancers across the UK, and particularly those from underrepresented groups disproportionately affected by the crisis. Please help spread the word #TheatreArtistsFund.
