| Notes: | Art is not an add-on, It never has been. It has always been central to our existence and understanding. Lee Hall, Guardian Theatre Blog earlier this year. This year (2010) the Arts Council announced £19m worth of cuts to arts funding. Some people thought this was for the best, some thought it was for the worst. Five writers give their response.
