Welsh Theatre — Challenges and Beyond (The COVID-19 Impact)

Theaters in Wales are closed until 2021. That means no live performances for about 9 months. What does it mean for performing arts in Cardiff?

I interviewed Georgina White, Actor (The Beauty Parade, As You Like It..)and RADA trained Vocal artist, to know more.

“Live performance is the beating heart of theatres; it is how and why they exist. The subsequent effect (of closure of theatres) on performing arts is devastating. But, I believe Cardiff is one of the most exciting performing arts hubs, full of talented people. It is a solid, supportive community that will reinvent itself and thrive again. We need our government to continue their vital support as the Arts are such an essential part of our culture and heritage.”
