Theatremakers Who Can’t Do Theatre Right Now Are Volunteering For Britain’s National Health Service

Turns out that many actors, writers, and producers were already in theatre – and that balancing the arts and sciences came naturally. Now that it’s all science, and all terrifying, they’re stepping up. One playwright who’s part of a critical care team for those with Covid-19: “I do think that theatre helps you make sense of things, because you can feel very small. … I have just been writing about what it looks like. I’m so overwhelmed; you just have so much emotion at the end of each day, so I’ve been trying to make sense of it.” – The Stage (UK)
