London’s Old Vic Has Sold 30,000 Live Streaming Theatre Tickets … And Counting

It’s not an archive; it’s not live in a parking lot. It’s live and socially distanced and streamed. Those 30,000 tickets have sold to people in 73 countries. But it’s not perfect, especially for the directors and performers. “There’s no immediate response, no sense of connection, nor is there an opportunity to go out and have a drink or something to eat. Everybody just goes home, individually. It emphasizes the isolation and the loneliness and the grimness of this whole thing.” – The New York Times
