Broadway is back, but it comes with many restrictions and rules. In order to keep themselves, fellow audience members and theatre workers safe, there are precautions that have to be taken in order to enjoy a Broadway show now. So, what’s it actually like seeing a Broadway show now that theatre has returned? On Wednesday, October 13, I saw the 2 p.m. matinee of Hadestown, and am here to report what you have to do in order to see a Broadway show during Covid.
One of the biggest blessings for me over the pandemic was that I finally had time to get involved in my community. I explored undiscovered neighborhoods, tried lots of restaurants that had always been closed by the time I got home late from my shows, volunteered at a food pantry, and started following local news and politics. As part of this, I became more involved with local arts organizations and in statewide arts advocacy. I attended Zoom meetings to learn how other artists, arts workers, and arts organizations were weathering the storm, and to simply meet others from my city who were working in the creative industries.
