The theater world, as you’ve certainly read or at least surmised by now, has been decimated by Covid-19. Social distancing is sort of hard to do in the biz. More and more studies are coming out about how dangerous singing in close proximity is. Our industry was the first to shutter and it looks like we will be the last to open. This leaves many people who have worked incredibly hard at something their whole lives, giving the proverbial blood sweat and tears to get to the top of this crazy profession and who are stunningly good at what they do with no work, through no fault of their own. The restaurant industry tis also being pummeled, and guess what actors do between gigs? They wait tables.
