Theatr Brycheiniog has a history of lighting up in various colours to support different causes, however this time the cause was very close to their heart.
On September 30th, theatres across the UK lit up red in solidarity for the struggling arts sector.
Over 500 UK venues took part in the campaign, including Brecon’s canalside theatre.
The Light It In Red campaign is being run by The Professional Lighting and Sound Assosication (PLASA), the leading international membership body representing companies and individuals that operate in the events technology industry.
The Association works to ensure that each sector is fully represented and plays an active role in highlighting best practice and safe working conditions.
PLASA are fronting the #WeMakeEvents campaign to bring attention to the immediate support that is needed from the government to avoid potential collapse of the events industry supply chain.
A spokesperson for PLASA said: "The Light It In Red campaign is about highlighting the broad range of venues and event spaces that are in danger of never coming back and the terrible loss that would be, not only to our town and country and its rich cultural heritage.
"Red has always signified ‘stand by’ in theatre, we are standing by to go back to work. It now also signifies we are at RED ALERT. We Stand As ONE as we highlight the need for support if the live events industry is to survive.
"Our industry is important and contributes billions of pounds each year to the UK economy; due to COVID-19 it needs immediate help. We want our future to continue to create millions of memories with the stories to match - it’s what we do best."
