Pandemic Survey Closes Friday
The Julius Partners survey of our industry will close Friday. So far, 249 participants are tipping a 50% downturn in the live production industry.
More responses will help confirm the devastating effects of the pandemic, including on mental health which at this stage appears not as bad as feared. Whether this is (in part) due to the ‘can-do’ attitude of many entertainment techs, or is misrepresented in the survey sample remains to be seen.
For these reasons and because knowledge is power, please do participate in the anonymous surveys and note we do not track IP. Nothing you report can be traced to you.

While we’re at it, Support Act is delighted to announce that its Wellbeing Helpline has been expanded beyond the music and theatre industries to now incorporate all artists and arts workers across Australia.
