Title alamy.com/Donald Cooper The pandemic nearly killed theatre – the creative way it fought back could leave it stronger Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet the conversation Media type Web Duration/Length/Size 5 minute Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 21/02/22 Description When the UK went into lockdown in 2020, its multibillion-pound theatre industry could have ceased to exist.
