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 Sound of Music and Cabaret are certainly not the only pieces of popular fiction to be built around the Nazis, yet the rise of fascism and its implications for "ordinary" men and women are subjects that dramatists have been understandably wary of. CP Taylor's shimmering, compelling study of the seductions and dangers of the liberal position is at the Donmar from 18 March. But first comes Speer, Esther Vilar's biographical study, directed by and starring the legendary Klaus Maria Brandauer (right).

The Almeida, London N1 (0171-359 4404) from 4 Mar
