Curtsinup and the Voronavirus

Curtainup and the Virus We are all living through an unprecedented chapter in civilization's history. In the thester, this is the first time ever that the motto "the show must go on" doesn't apply. The virus disaster has shuttered not just big Broadway theaters but the smaller ones. Even some of our critics who were able to see new shows during preview press performances have been asked not to post their reviews until the show until the show can indeed open( for example, Six). Hopefully links to shows we did review will be active again when these precautions about people going to public plaes will no longer be necessary. Since Lonon theaters are still open, the postings there can indeed be seen. My own recognition of the increased influence of streaming organizations and how their productions have more and more attracted top staage talent — and, of course, audiences — has led to my covering more stsge actor heavy shows like The Irishmactorsan & Marriage Story, The Two Popes ,   Binge Streaming Features:The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel & Shtisel, and Madame Secretary and The Crown. The current crisis is likely to make this "couch potato" style of entertainment the only one available We're always interested in having some new theater loving, insightful backups join us as reviewers or feature writers.
