Attention, skint artists of England! Phoebe Waller-Bridge—the Fleabag herself—is starting a side hustle: patron saint to creatives with rent woes.

Specifically, Waller-Bridge will be lending a flat to London based playwrights from underprivileged backgrounds. This is part and parcel of a pilot program helmed by Writers’ Block, a group that aims to level the playing field for disadvantaged writers in the United Kingdom.

A flat is no small thing in London, where daily life grows ever more cumbersome for the working class artist. As The Guardian reported, Waller-Bridge’s space seeks to ease the burden of the hustle. Selected writers will get a place to work in peace, and pay only bills.

Fleabag’s not the only one lending a hand. Jack Thorne, a peer playwright and co-creator of the show Adolescence, is also throwing some serious pounds into the program. As he told the BBC in a statement, supporting working class writers should be an industry prerogative.

“If we want stories told about our complicated world, we need writers of every background writing them,” he said. “If you’re from privilege, your biggest problem is what to fill a page with. If you’re not, so much of your struggle is about the need to survive.”

Other Writers’ Block backers include Crown creator Peter Morgan, Happy Valley creator Sally Wainwright, and Waller-Bridge’s partner, the prolific screen and playwright Martin McDonagh. (Because only wild horses could keep them apart, I guess.)

Writers’ Block grew out of the Adopt-a-Playwright Award, founded in 2008 by Sofie Mason and Diana Jervis-Read. And as these heroes noted, the model is mighty reproducible.

I nominate New York City for the next pilot scheme.
