Slashing English National Opera’s funding is cultural vandalism | English National Opera (ENO) | The Guardian

Letters: Withdrawing state subsidy and moving the company to Manchester will destroy it, writes John Nickson. Plus letters from Tony Lamb, Elspeth Knights and Joanne Columbine

So the axe falls on ENO - stripped of funding and told to move to Manchester if it wants future subsidy. Hardly helpful when Opera North cover that area very well.

Fulfilling its long-held aim of defunding @E_N_O, today’s assault on the arts by the UK government - part of its wider agenda of sinking the country - leaves London lagging even further behind major European capitals, where two or three opera houses are the norm.

Despite campaigns against it and past promises, the internationally important V&A Theatre and Performance Collection will be dispersed & expert staff made redundant. It shouldn’t be like this. Heartbreaking 💔
The Victoria and Albert Museum has confirmed it is to reduce its curatorial teams by 15%, while merging its Theatre and Performance department with Furniture, Fashion and Textiles https://t.co/9EtUNbduvi

This is appalling. Who imagines they can run this incomparable library of books, documents and objects with only 10 staff? Even 20 would be overworked. Anyone who goes there knows this 1/2
