I work in theatre...and as of yet, we are not shutting down.

And...it is CRAZY here right now. I work on the ticketing side of business and man are people calling the folks in our call center in sheer panic!

I would think they don't want to refund tickets either...I think Boradway is just breaking even as it is.

Where I work, it's direct ticketing (ie., customer-to-company)...not a broker/third-party site. Refunds are being processed for those who cannot attend the performances. Chat Icon

I think it's absurd. The biggest threat to the city (besides subway lines) is debris. Imagine the smallest object flying through the air at hurricane wind speed. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
