This. As per usual Sarah is very wise.
The silence from other artistic leaders and supposed allies to disable artists on this issue has been overwhelming and so disappointing.

I'm very happy to say that ALL Opera North performances for the rest of this season (that's The Pearl Fishers and Requiem/After Tears) have pre-recorded audio description. Great recording with @VickyAckroyd and Michele Jackson.

A real delight of a show!

From the Jeremy Vine Show to The Telegraph front page, the British media has unleashed a new era of vilifying disabled benefit claimants. “Should we leave the disabled to starve to death?” is just legitimate debate.
