STUDY – INTERDEPENDENCE:
FREELANCERS AND ORGANISATIONS, 2020
This report was written by Freelancers Make Theatre Work and includes data gathered from over 90 producing organisations throughout the UK.
The purpose of this study is to gather data on the relationship between performing arts organisations and freelance theatre workers. We hope it will be useful for anybody lobbying the government for further support of the UK performing arts industry and its freelance workforce.
