In 2023 when we were living in a Dune installment under orange skies, Broadway refused to go dark for a night and several shows had to cancel performances because performers called out instead.

The world didn’t stop because of the wildfires. I had to go to work like everybody else, but Broadway actors are so special to you that they should be exempt?
