This survey is being conducted by CRIPtic Arts as part of the Always the Audience, Never the Star research project, funded by Arts Council England (hereafter Always the Audience). None of the questions are compulsory. There is always the option to answer “prefer not to say” or to skip questions. The survey is completely confidential and anonymous. At the end of the survey, you will be asked if you are willing to provide your contact details in order to participate in an additional interview – but this is entirely optional, and your contact information will be separated from the rest of your survey response. At every stage of the project, all your data will be stored securely, in accordance with CRIPtic Arts’ Data Policy [https://cripticarts.org/privacy-policy/] and compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

In line with CRIPtic Arts’ organisational ethos, and the nature of this research, every aspect of Always the Audience is designed to be accessible. If you require support to complete this survey, you are welcome to contact caitlin@cripticarts.org to request support or adjustments. The survey is also available in alternative formats on our website.
