| No, we don't, but let's remember a couple of things. First, Broadway is a lot more than the dumping ground you describe. Please don't hold your breath (blue is not a good color for you) but yes it would be lovely if there was a little less of the Las Vegas-like. Maybe if the non-tourists show more support for what they have been missing, there will be more opportunity to program to a somewhat different demographic. Regarding producers, honestly, that's a tall order but it also betrays a secret: it is audiences that drive programming. Unless and until tourists return, programming for them will not return. (And this is why I keep posting that all of these evergreens everyone is expecting on day one will not reopen then.) |
