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.

Twelfth Night Gender is on the agenda in John Retallack's warmly engaging production of Shakespeare's rich comedy of love and mistaken identity. Short on melancholy but long on thoughtful humour. Theatre Royal, Bury St Edmunds

Of Mice and Men John Steinbeck's tough and tender heartbreaker wins passionate and strikingly unsentimental performances from a cast (Bob Barrett, Tom McGovern, left) skillfully directed by Kenny Ireland. Edinburgh Lyceum

The Glass Menagerie Tennessee Williams's fragile tale of love, pain and the whole damn thing is a masterpiece. Zoe Wanamaker and Claire Skinner seize their opportunities and weave a potent spell. Comedy Theatre, Panton St, London SW1
