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.

I can recommend two things: Bullets Over Broadway, which I loved (pure Woody Allen transported into an earlier American age), and the Brecht- Weill Mahagonny at the ENO, which some of the critics have been very severe about and some have loved - I fell very much in the second category. It gripped the audience from beginning to end, the singing was excellent, and some of the tableaux effects they had, with all the cast on-stage, were almost cinematic. Brilliant.
