Bruce Springsteen returns to Broadway—with a vaccine mandate

DKC/O&MBruce Springsteen will be the first act in a Broadway theater at full capacity since the industry shut down last March. The show, a concert-memoir titledwill start performances on June 26, more than a month before the next reopening marquee. It will also be a revival of sorts, bringing the famed New Jerseyan back to the Rialto after he shattered box office records in 2018.Hamilton

, will require vaccines for its cast and crew. But Springsteen is setting a precedent many industry players seem ready to follow.“It’s crazy to think otherwise. The only way that any of us are going to get protection against each other or feel protected, is if you’re vaccinated and the person you’re inches away from is vaccinated.”

Alongside fellow billionaire David Geffen, Diller has, by his own estimation, sunk $50 million into theatrical projects hoping to reopen, including. But guidance across the industry is muddled, with its leading trade organization, the Broadway League, coyly declining to take a public stance. However, the League’s president, Charlotte St. Martin, has made her personal position refreshingly clear: “Anybody who doesn’t get vaccinated is an idiot.”

Springsteen will be an exciting, if imperfect, way to gauge the industry’s return. His initial Broadway bow was the definition of success. For 58 weeks he sold out the Walter Kerr Theatre, grossing $113 million, and setting the record for the most expensive seat on Broadway at $512. Great reviews were a nice garnish, and the effort garnered him a special non-competitive Tony Award.

Lol pass

I'm curious how this is enforced. Seems like without a widely accepted vax passport, it's pretty easy for non vaxxed folks to lie their way into anywhere they want to be.
