We feel it's important to let both you, the reader, and the management at Young Vic know that we are not naive or romantic in our ideas about working at Young Vic.
We are very aware that we are Front of House staff, and whatever other decisions which are made in the organisation are superfluous to our role. We have respect and admiration for our ambitious colleagues.
We want to be able to trust that the decisions which are made, are made in support of all staff members across the board and audience members holistically. We are personally affected by what's going on, but we are not personally attacking any of the management or staff in Young Vic.
We ignited this platform to make our voices heard. So often we are scared; and it's exactly this fear that makes us vulnerable to harsh and oppressive decisions.We feel like it would be hypocritical to let this happen in silence.
Thank you.
This has been created in response to recent moves from management towards staff at Young Vic. This includes at best threatening language and at worst, sackings via email and redundancies. It has been created from a theatre which puts on inspiring and brilliant plays about peoples' uprisings. It has been created in a theatre that says 'it's a big world in here', but puts the weakest people in that world against the wall at the first opportunity.
