When the latest extension of the shutdown happened, I got the impression that many shows really figured they wouldn't be back until around September. Company's discount code doesn't START until September 8 and runs through January. Mrs. Doubtfire's current discount code runs until July of 2021. Didn't Chicago urge people to rebook starting in September? The shows at Roundabout and LCT that were postponed until fall haven't announced specific dates.

I got an email from the Met that they are starting ticket sales on April 27, rather that the previously announced June 21. Their season starts late September. I had hoped to see the new Aida with Netrebko in the early fall but I'll definitely wait to buy tickets.

Your paragraph about the Met surprised me and I looked at their website. They're actually starting ticket sales "for patrons" a week earlier than the April 27 date for "single ticket" sales. I understand the Met's desire and need for sales but I really wonder how many people are going to buy tickets for September--or later--even IF they believe the season will start then. The house holds almost 4000 seats and even if, therefore, audiences can be seated further apart than in B'way. theaters, is there any guarantee--let alone promise--that this will be done?

I agree! There are a few things on their schedule that I am definitely interested in (Aida, Die Zauberflote, Don Giovanni) but I plan to hold off on buying as I doubt it will be hard to get tickets closer to the performance date.
