New York’s Public Theater Cancels Shakespeare In The Park, Faces $10-20 Million Shortfall — But Still Has New Work Coming

THEATRE Posted: April 17, 2020 9:59 am

Artistic director Oskar Eustis said that “there’s no way we can responsibly prepare, build and rehearse to get shows open in a timing that might match the quarantine’s timing.” 70% of full-time staff will be furloughed through the summer, with the rest taking pay cuts. Even so, the Public is now producing a videoconferencing play that Eustis calls “the best thing about how we live now in quarantine that I’ve read in any medium.” – The New York Times
