Launch of #LiveSupport video in support of the forgotten army of crew technicians and the supply chain of the live events industry
Featuring stars from comedy and theatre, who have come together to raise awareness for the
700000 people in the industry supply chain; most of whom have not been able to work for the last
year.
It reminds the public what has been lost and that without expert technicians, transporters, logistics
experts, caterers, riggers and production staff, live events and theatre cannot return.
These are the people behind the scenes who ensure that THE SHOW MUST GO ON. They work across
festivals, corporate events, theatre, sporting ceremonies, live music and many other cultural events.
Part of the wider campaign by We Make Events fighting for the £70 billion UK industry and the
freelancers who work within it, most of which, have received no support for a year. Without them
any return to live events is unlikely in the immediate short term.
