Indeed. He also added that folks who get cancelled on should considering donating that money to the theater rather than ask for a refund. Would be nice if most of us could afford to do that.

Yes, the matinee - but I've got a feeling more will be cancelled within the next few days.

The cancellation was posted on r/broadway as well; according to the poster there: "The individual passing out the notices said that it’s both shows today, with an update to come about longer cancellations."

Wow. It would be the right decision, but would also mean The Inheritance had its last performance last night. Was anything else closing this weekend?

If Broadway does go dark, I will be curious to see if the (already written) reviews will be published on schedule tomorrow.

Moulin Rouge cancelled today because an employee is believed to have COVID19. It is not necessarily indicative of an industry-wide cancellation.

The NHL just suspended its the reminder of its regular season. Is baseball season going to start? Is Disney World going to stay open? Are these effective gauges anymore?
Safety is the biggest concern. At my school, we’re getting hourly updates from the state, county, and out charter (literally). We’ve been told this will be our new normal until further notice.

I realized it was posted earlier, but it seems like people are ignoring it.

Not ignoring it, but right now its just a discussion. Waiting for an official announcement.

Coronavirus: Broadway Producers Discussing Immediate Month-Long Shutdown; Emergency Meeting Underway Now!
The Broadway League has called an emergency meeting today as theater owners and producers consider a proposal to shut down all Broadway productions immediately over coronavirus concerns, staying dark until Easter Sunday, April 12, Deadline hears.
Such a shutdown could see the industry losing well more than $100 million in a month’s worth of weekly box office alone, not counting advance ticket sales.
The League, the trade organization representing theater owners and producers, did not immediately respond to Deadline’s request for comment.
Deadline also hears that the shutdown is endorsed by Actors’ Equity.
"Anything you do, let it it come from you--then it will be new."

Are you referencing the Booth usher or someone at the Al-Hirshfeld?
