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.

A choreographer in love with performing, Aletta Collins fills the spaces between making dances for opera and film with evenings by her own company. The latest, a double bill in London's Spring Loaded festival, promises curvy Collins dancing Certain Obsessions, an intimate and humorous solo in and out of the spotlight, to music by Leonard Bernstein. For Alice is Back in Wonderland three other women join Collins in a personal journey haunted by echoes of Alice's own surreal experiences. Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" is the unlikely accompaniment.

Place Theatre, 17 Duke's Road, London WC1 (0171-387 0031) 1-3 April, 8pm
