Excellent! Now if the theatre owners will be able to adapt their environments to his advice - we gots a shot!

I would dispense w temperature check 1) not very accurate ( coming in out of the cold gives false lows) 2) not everyone who has the virus gets a fever. Give a false sense of security

Totally agree w all audience wearing masks AND KEEPING THEM ON, Removal would be cause for ejection. Would have extra's avail for purchase.

NO concessions would require mask removal.

Depending on the distance between the stage and the audience 1st row empty is a reasonable interim action.

The big issue to me is the performers and stage crew. Social distancing is virtually impossible.

So w so many variables I'd say no Bway will not take these measure.They open themselves up to too much liability.
