This is a rather ridiculous suggestion. Broadway actors, stagehands, musicians, and FOH staff should not be forced to isolate in hotel rooms while the rest of us are allowed to go about our lives. And the second they leave isolation, they’d be at risk again. The cost of this would also close most current shows for good. It’s really either these shows continue to try to make things work or they shutter and all of these folks again go on unemployment.

Is it better that Broadway actors, stagehands, musicians, and FOH staff should be exposed to Covid as an occupational hazard while their shows attempt to wring whatever profits they can, only to then close down the shows for good once their mismanagement of the virus makes that model completely unsustainable?

Broadway has returned to producing as if it's 2019. At least Off-Broadway is making a few meager concessions to valuing the company's health and quality of life.

I'd be interested to learn about what is being done differently Off-Broadway to at all better protect production casts and crews. It seems like a horrible situation right now.

I don't think they're doing anything different in terms of Covid... I was referring to things like many non-profits announcing they're no longer having 10 out of 12s and shifting to 5-day rehearsal weeks rather than the customary 6.
