| After the show lets out, you won't be able to catch your downtown late-night A train going home after Shakespeare in the Park lets out since there won't be local service from 125th to 59th. Many many other nightly subway reroutes/shutdowns/shuttle buses the next 3 weeks too. I feel bad for everyone who has to schlep home from there every single night since they work there. Must be really rough for anyone who has a family if Mommy/Daddy won't get home from their theater job until 1am or later. I can understand some performances start at 8pm due to personal preferences of some people (and people who prefer to see the show in the darkness), but to have every single performance start at 8pm is really rough on a lot of people. I wish some performances started at 6pm or 7pm as a compromise (both for a better commute and to actually see the show and facial expressions in daylight, rather than have blinding spotlights during darkness ruin sightlines). The Public talks about theater "for all", but they are really preventing school kids from seeing the wonderful beauty of the shows if they insist on such a late start time. A 6pm start time would be a true "theater for all" experience. |
