Political meddling in arts organisations across the globe is an issue for us all says Natasha Tripney in The Stage. Read more here: www.thestage.co.uk/opinion/poli... #TheArts #ArtsCensorship #SaveTheArts #FreelancersMakeTheatreWork

‘Even if we’re not subject to the same level of heavy-handed state interference in the UK, there is a growing culture of self-censorship, risk aversion and the excision of capital-P politics from theatre, which we don’t have to accept. The loss of freedom occurs by increment, until it comes in a rush.’
