Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

IF Bacofoil jumpsuits and "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" are your bag, then see Jackie Clune's show (right). In "It's Jackie!", the tongue-in-cheek singer runs through camp classics by the likes of Dusty Springfield, Karen Carpenter, Sandy Shaw and Cilla Black. Come and relive the Seventies in all their kitsch glory.

Aussie comedians have often thrived on this side of the world - just look at Mark Little, Bob Downe and a certain Barry Humphries. A new wave are now following in their footsteps with Oz.Dot.Comedy. The well-regarded trio of Carl Barron, Matt Sutherland and Adam Richard claim to have come over from Sydney and Melbourne "in one suitcase".
