Theatre
Simon Evans presents another comedy lecture on economics and in this episode he looks at the impact of the pandemic on the stand-up and theatre worlds.
As the waters recede from the tsunami of the global pandemic and Britain settles into its new relationship with Europe and the World, Simon Evans returns to focus his jokenomics lens on the myriad economic challenges and opportunities facing humanity.
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought Britain鈥檚 world-leading performing arts sector to its knees. Even with significant government investment to keep the industry temporarily afloat, will audience behaviours have changed so significantly that the live event experience is never the same again?
Simon Evans is joined by another Simon Evans, the director of the acclaimed lockdown hit 'Staged'
