At the start of the pandemic in March we took the decision to make online access to our news free of charge by taking down our paywall. At a time where accurate information about Covid-19 was vital to our community, this was the right decision – even though it meant a drop in our income. In order to help safeguard the future of our journalism, the time has now come to reinstate our paywall, However,
rest assured that access to all Covid related news will still remain free.
To access all other news will require a subscription, as it did pre-pandemic. The good news is that for the whole of December we will be running a special discounted offer to get 3 months access for the price of one month. Thank you for supporting us during this incredibly challenging time.

“The themes tend to be thornier and we have a lot of risk-taking work,” says Dawn Taylor of Manipulate Festival.
When Dawn took on her leadership role at Puppet Animation Scotland last August, she had no idea if the company’s annual puppetry festival would even go ahead in 2021.
Yet, in the midst of a second lockdown, Manipulate Festival has launched as a digital offering, giving people everywhere the chance to discover more about the art form of puppetry.
Now in its 14th year, the festival presents boundary-pushing performances by artists specialising in puppetry for an adult audience.
