Melbourne Theatre Company will get a $5 million cash rescue package from the federal government, after being forced to cancel yet another expensive production due to the city’s continuing pandemic restrictions.
“Every show has been impacted by the lockdowns or capacity restrictions or border closures – we just have not escaped,” Ms Lovett said. “The velocity and frequency of these lockdowns has been pretty brutal.” The grant comes from a fund set aside for last-resort cash lifelines to significant Australian government-funded arts organisations that are assessed to be at “imminent risk” as a direct result of COVID-19.
