As we near the end of another month in lockdown, here are a few shows/concerts that can quench your thirst for live shows until we can re-populate our beloved theatres once again.
At this time, our theatres need your support more than ever, and even though some may advertise ‘free shows’, they do need donations to help both the theatre, but also the freelance artists taking part in this inventive form of digital theatre.
