Broadway officially not back this year
Posted by: Leon_W 11:29 am EDT 06/29/20

Broadway League has said no shows before January 3rd at the earliest. No surprise but I feel for the performers and staff.

Expected but still very sad.

While the actors and crew are earning significantly less on unemployment, the front of house staff (bartenders, ushers, merch, porters) are making more than if the theaters were open, so I wouldn't feel too sorry for them.

FOH managers and (for most merch companies though not all) merch managers (I cannot speak for what ushers, bartenders, or bartending managers make) folks are mostly making less. And have the same bills to pay.

Your post reads as either not knowing of what you speak, or not caring. There's way more people impacted by this shut down in very negative ways than just performers or crew.

If you are referring to the $600/month week, that ends July 31.
