What would the festive season look like without entertainment? 🎭 Research from our Centre for Regulation of the Creative Economy (CREATe) shows that livelihoods are under threat in the UK creative industries. Read more in @thescotsmanpaper.bsky.social ⬇️ www.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Christmas with no panto? Shockingly low pay for actors, writers and artists poses existential threat

The average pay of people who work in the creative sector is so low that they are increasingly being forced out of the industry – unless they have another source of income
