In Broadway’s 100+ year history, it has never faced a situation like the COVID-19 suspension. Members of our community from actors to stage hands and ushers to building engineers are finding themselves suddenly out of work. The same can be said for those working on tours, in regional and in community theaters around the country. Like millions of Americans, their livelihoods and daily lives have been disrupted without warning. And yet, this community is more determined than ever. Determined that theatre will be back soon, stronger than ever. Determined that in these challenging times the arts are going to be critical for people across all walks of life. But maybe most importantly, we are determined that we will help those affected by this situation, however we can.

 

Until The Lights Go Up seeks to raise funds to support members of our community facing hardships in these challenging times. All proceed from sales of Until The Lights Come Up merchandise will be donated to the Broadway Cares COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund. By buying a shirt or donating here, you support the hard working people that make live theatre & entertainment while also getting a beautifully designed piece of clothing that shows your commitment to the day we get to turn off our ghost lights and turn our show lights on.
