Obviously, we hope this is only a temporary solution until shows are back up and running, so here are just some of the ways we'll be keeping occupied from home. There are lots of ways to experience theatre online, including free productions and paid streaming services (though many have free trials you can make the most of before making your mind up). But, in these unprecedented times, unchartered waters, there are ways we can keep our spirits up, and theatre is still an available way to do so. Nothing compares to the buzz of the curtain rising and the act one opener. Missing the theatre already? We definitely are.
