Buses as well.

Do you think there's a good chance that any shows tonight will cancel performances?

Shows tonight and tomorrow will probably announce cancellations in a couple of hours since their actors may not be able to get home.

CHICAGO, MAMMA MIA!, and THE PERFORMERS have shows tonight. Any others for Broadway?

Off-Broadway has many shows tonight: AVENUE Q, SILENCE, TRIBES, THE FANTASTIKS, NEWSICAL, FORBIDDEN BROADWAY just to name a few.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

I'm supposed to go to The Performers, but I'm not going.

The evening shows are going to cancel, it's not just the performers they have to worry about - the house staff and crew too.

Buses as well.


The buses shut down at 9 pm, not 7 pm, just as an added note for all you people.

Theatre is my life. No one can take that away from me.
