Respite For London Theatres As Coronavirus Rescue Package Unveiled
A woman wearing a face mask carries bags of shopping past tape bearing the message 'Live Theatre Missing' stretched across the entrance to the closed Apollo Theatre, home to musical 'Everybody's Talking About Jamie', on Shaftesbury Avenue in London, England, on July 6, 2020. The British government last night unveiled a 1.57 billion GBP 'rescue package' for the arts sector, designed to help museums, galleries, theatres, independent cinemas, heritage sites and music venues through the coronavirus pandemic. It follows weeks of lobbying from industry leaders, who have been warning that many venues were on the brink of collapse, with some theatres around the country having already announced they will be closing down. Performing arts venues have yet to hear when they will be allowed to reopen, and under what kind of conditions, although guidance is expected to be published by the government soon. Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden indicated today that outdoor performances would be first to be allowed. (Photo by David Cliff/NurPhoto)
