Playwrights call for greater creative risk following Jennie Lee lecture last week
Read this story in @thestage.co.uk with quotes from WGGB Theatre Chairs @mogster.bsky.social and @sonalidb.bsky.social and former WGGB President David Edgar

3/ This financial blow is devastating not just for Graeae, but for the British theatre landscape. We hope the Department for Work and Pensions will reconsider their decision
2/ Jenny is an incredible, dynamic theatre director and Artistic Director, as well as a formidable and tireless advocate for equal access to theatre for disabled artists

1/ “The WGGB Theatre Committee are extremely concerned to learn of the swingeing cuts to Artistic Director of @graeaetheatre.bsky.social Jenny Sealey’s Access to Work
4/ We stand in full solidarity with Jenny Sealey, Graeae, and all our disabled members, many of whom have also seen cuts to Access to Work support, making the barriers to their full participation in the sector even harder”
