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.DANCE Louise Levene
Lloyd Newson has been down the pub for an in-depth look at contemporary masculinity and the result is Enter Achilles, which had its British premiere in Newcastle last night after a successful European tour. Like all DV8's work it confronts a serious subject with wit and some startling choreography. See it at Newcastle Playhouse tonight (0191-230 5151), Bristol next week, then Manchester and Oxford.
Rambert Dance Co begins its autumn tour in Carlisle next Friday with a mixed bill that includes two Christopher Bruce classics: the intriguing Swansong and Rooster, the Rolling Stones extravaganza. The triple-bill is rounded off by Mark Baldwin's Banter Banter.
London City Ballet is adored by audiences of medium-sized theatres and the company is rewarding one such venue when it premieres Matthew Hart's Cinderella at the Orchard in Dartford next Thursday. Unusually for ballet productions of Cinderella, there will be no cross-dressing and incest is scarcely touched upon.
