English National Opera announces rollout of breathing programme to help people recovering from COVID-19

The English National Opera begins the UK-wide rollout of ENO Breathe, a new prescribed programme of singing, breathing and wellbeing, designed to help those recovering from the symptoms of COVID-19.

The programme uses the techniques used for singers to improve quality of breath and help manage the anxiety that breathlessness often produces. Singing is shown to help retrain breathing, so ENO Breathe is using lullabies and singing exercises to help improve those with shortness of breath.

It is hoped that this new scheme will support those suffering from the effects of long COVID, for which there is an increasing demand across the NHS.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern erhöht Unterstützung für Theatersanierung in Greifswald

Das Land Mecklenburg-Vorpommern hat seine finanzielle Unterstützung für die Sanierung des Theaters Vorpommern in Greifswald erhöht. Hintergrund ist eine Finanzierungslücke bei dem städtischen Bauvorhaben, die sich durch die Kostensteigerung von etwa 20 Millionen Euro auf mehr als 40 Millionen Euro aufgetan hatte.

Durch diese Lücke drohte das Vorhaben trotz der bereits zugesagten 10 Millionen Euro aus der Städtebauförderung zu scheitern, wie das Kulturministerium am Samstag mitteilte. In den vergangenen Wochen habe das Land dafür gemeinsam mit Oberbürgermeister Stefan Fassbinder nach einer tragfähigen Lösung gesucht. Das Ergebnis: Das Land wird nun auch zur höheren Summe die Hälfte dazugeben.

Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania increases support for theatre renovation in Greifswald

The state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has increased its financial support for the renovation of the Theatre Vorpommern in Greifswald. The reason for this is a gap in the financing of the municipal building project, which had opened up due to an increase in costs from about 20 million euros to more than 40 million euros.

Due to this gap, the project was in danger of failing despite the 10 million euros already promised from urban development funding, as the Ministry of Culture announced on Saturday. In recent weeks, the state has been working with Mayor Stefan Fassbinder to find a viable solution. The result: the state will now also add half to the higher sum.
