Crusaid benefit
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The great thing about charity gigs - apart from the money raised, of course - is that they bring together a host of top comedians who would never usually be seen on the same bill. Four of our finest performers - the cake-loving, man-hating Jo Brand, the master of the delicious double entendre, Julian Clary (right), the Star Wars fanatic, Phill Jupitus, and the wondrous stand-up musician Bill Bailey - are all appearing at tonight's benefit in aid of Crusaid and The Food Chain.
Edinburgh Playhouse (0131-557 2590) tonight, 11.30pm
