The situation of cinemas and theaters
Due to the spread of the pandemic, the activities of cinemas and theaters have suffered numerous variations between closings, contingent reopens and new suspensions. At the beginning of March, the first stop was organized for all the shows in cinemas and theaters. The green light for the resumption of screenings and performances had then come from June 15, but with a maximum of 200 spectators indoors and up to 1,000 for outdoor events. With the new dpcm, as of October 26, the curtains will go down again and the lights in all cinemas and theaters in the country go out. The theater world has not welcomed these new restrictions: “In Paris the rules are very strict, but the theaters do not close. The same is true in Germany. There is a show at 6pm, before curfew. The stupidity and blindness of this provision will go down in history, ”wrote Andrée Ruth Shammah, director of alma at the Teatro Franco Parenti in Milan, on Facebook, who yesterday organized a collection of signatures to guarantee the opening of theaters and theaters. Tomorrow there was a call to rethink from the world of entertainment and culture, which was followed by two other letters of similar content from AGIS and the main Italian Cultural Councilors.
Meanwhile, Milan’s Teatro alla Scala has announced refund procedures on Facebook for spectators who already have tickets.
