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.TAMASHA THEATRE'S 14 Songs, Two Weddings and a Funeral is a bold attempt by the company to provide a small-scale staging of the 1994 Bollywood blockbuster Hum Aapke Hain Koun...!, a film so popular it played for a year in London. It's the all-smiles performances from the fresh-faced cast, lipsynching to saccharine anglicised tracks, which keep you engaged with the soapy, matrimony-fixated action.

You should probably read The Black Dahlia by James Ellroy (right) before you see Method and Madness's dexterous version, which attempts to cram in as many of the savage plot twists surrounding the obsessive central murder investigation as possible. But director Mike Alfreds still manages to crank up the tension, with a taut visual style that persuasively relays Ellroy's dystopian vision of Forties LA.
