“Dayanışmanın 100 Şiir (Solidarity through Poetry)” is a solidarity network for theatre artists who can not perform during Covid days. The aim of the initiative is to support the artists with their living expenses and therefore support the independent theatre in Turkey. Some of the important artists of Turkey volunteered to create the platform that consists of records of many artists reading poems of Turkish poets. People can use the platform to listen to poetry and donate to support the artists.
