ENO officials had said the 100% funding cut would decimate the 100-year-old company, while many big names across the arts world called the decision a “simplistic move”.Įarlier this year, ACE announced it would invest national lottery funding in the company until March 2024 to sustain a programme of work at the ENO’s home, the London Coliseum, while helping the ENO start planning for a new base. The ENO was one of a number of organisations that were removed from ACE’s national portfolio, losing its £12.8m annual grant, and told it must move outside London if it wants to qualify for future grants. ACE said the longer timeframe would mean more stability, allow for consultation with staff, more work in London and more time for the ENO to develop partnerships in its new home.
