Broadway's theatres reopen in New York

Big Broadway productions like The Lion King, Chicago, Hamilton and Wicked are back on stage in New York's famous theatre district and they will be allowed to have full houses, as the authorities are easing coronavirus restrictions.

The shutdown of Broadway put many performers out of work in the last year, but the reopening of theatres is causing great excitement among the stars and backstage workers, as Kate Shindle, the President of the Actors' Equity Association, tells the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Russell Padmore.
