“I hope this filmed performance of Fleabag can help raise money while providing a little theatrical entertainment in these isolated times.”
In addition, producers have also started a fundraising support for UK theatre freelancers, who have been affected by the pandemic, called Fleabag Support Fund.
As an effort to raise funds for COVID-19 charities, Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s 2019 live theater performance of Fleabag will now be available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video, starting on Friday, April 10.
It has already collected £356,000 donations from Phoebe Waller-Bridge and further donations from TodayTix and an anonymous donor.
