Broadway Suspends Performances Through April 12 Due to Coronavirus
Broadway has suspended all of its performances due to the coronavirus, the Broadway League announced Thursday.
They will be suspended through at least April 12.
The announcement comes after Governor Andrew Cuomo announced on Thursday that gatherings of 500 or more people will be suspended statewide.
Cuomo said this guidance will go into effect as of 5 p.m. Friday, but he said it was going into effect for Broadway as of 5 p.m. Thursday.
Various other arts locations, including Carnegie Hall, the Met Opera and the Met Museum, announced on Thursday that they are closing as well.
Officials at the Met Opera and Carnegie Hall say all rehearsals and performances through March 31 are closed in both places. Carnegie Hall says its cancellations go into effect at midnight Thursday.
The Met Museum will temporarily close all three of its locations - The Met Fifth Avenue, The Met Breuer and the Met Cloisters - starting March 13.
