Freelancers making freelance work
An upcoming scheme will see 50 performing arts freelancers collaborate with organisations to improve work practices.
With 60 per cent of London s freelancers having lost all of their income during the pandemic, the project aims to build sustainable models for the freelance community to prevent more calamities like the one seen over the last year.
Fifty freelancers will be assembled from early May to work with a variety of organisations including the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre, the Barbican, Battersea Arts Centre, Regent s Park Open Air Theatre, the Old Vic and the Young Vic to bolster provisions for the self-employed.
