Action needed

Click here to protest against the proposed cuts to the Bush Theatre if you care about new writing; go to David Eldridge's blog to see the arguments set out much more thoroughly and eloquently than I can do it; go here to sign a petition to the Government if you have no confidence in the Arts Council right now. Here's Lyn Gardner's views, and here's Sam West on the BBC's Daily Politics show last week. following the Equity meeting at the Young Vic (the clip is only available for the next 4 days - fast forward to 25 minutes into the programme - although there's a nice bit of RSC Hamlet from 2001 at the beginning of the programme too.)

Will be back later with a more substantial post, but this couldn't wait.
