Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Amazon, home to the acclaimed TV series, are making the theater production available for streaming for a limited time as part of a fundraising effort for multiple charities providing Covid-19 relief. "I hope this filmed performance of 'Fleabag' can help raise money while providing a little theatrical entertainment in these isolated times," Waller-Bridge said in a statement.

All money raised will support the people throughout our society who are fighting for us on the frontlines and those financially devastated by the crisis, including those in the theatre community."
