Five people have been arrested after Just Stop Oil protesters disrupted a performance of Les Misérables at the Sondheim Theatre in London’s West End.

During a performance of the song Do You Hear the People Sing? members of the Just Stop Oil group stormed the stage with banners. In a video of the protest posted online, the performance came to a halt as one member shouted “just stop oil”, to boos from the audience.

    The problem isn’t raising awareness imo, god knows there’s enough information out there constantly… the battle now is getting people to care/believe.

    In that respect, my view is that JSOs approach is counterproductive. I support protest around this, but it needs to be better than this.
