Action: A Government-backed COVID cancellation scheme – UK Theatre / SOLT survey

10 May 2021

As part of UK Theatre / SOLT's ongoing work on lobbying for a government-backed insurance scheme for theatre, they need to collect more up to date information from you. This will form an important part of our evidence lobbying for Government-backed support

The purpose of this survey is to understand the sector’s intentions to open productions over the coming year and how they are impacted by the current lack of Government-backed COVID cancellation insurance.

Only one person in your business should complete this survey. Only complete if you are a lead producer / production company / producing venue. We are only asking lead producers and not receiving venues to avoid doubling up on responses.
