If you think restaurants and barbershops have it bad, imagine theaters. For most of them it&amp;#x27;s basically impossible to do social distancing and remain financially solvent. People may be itching to go out to eat and get a haircut, but it will be a long time before people are going to pack in to an opera house. Couple that with the fact that audiences for ballet, opera, and orchestras skews much older I&amp;#x27;m any case, and I fear many of these art forms will face a catastrophic blow in some cities.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Cirque Du Soleil Files for Bankruptcy Protection</title><url>https://www.wsj.com/articles/cirque-du-soleil-files-for-bankruptcy-protection-in-canada-11593455498</url></story>

It was mildly interesting in tv or movies. The one time that I went to a show, I was lucky enough to be far from the action: a lion sprayed the two front rows. The smell was everywhere, everything had a sad vibe, even (maybe specially) the clowns. Only trapeze artists saved the evening for me.&lt;p&gt;Cirque du Soleil was an entirely different matter. Everything was shiny, cool, happy. My son had a great time. I had a great time. Sad to see them close. Hope they can come back to life somehow.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Cirque Du Soleil Files for Bankruptcy Protection</title><url>https://www.wsj.com/articles/cirque-du-soleil-files-for-bankruptcy-protection-in-canada-11593455498</url></story>
