The European Premiere of Diva: Live From Hell was scheduled to be performed at the Brockley Jack Theatre on the 17th March 2020.

On the evening of 16th March, following a statement from the UK Government regarding the Coronavirus Epidemic, most of the UK theatre and hospitality industry shut down within hours.

West End Video was in attendance to capture promotional video for the production company. These interviews were conducted to shine a light on those affected by the sudden closures, from a grassroots fringe theatre industry perspective by freelance creatives.

To support smaller theatre productions such as this, if you bought a ticket for a show, please consider donating your ticket price back to the theatre, rather taking a refund if you can afford it. This is just one story from the closures. There are many more like this.
