Live entertainment folks have been unable to gather with extended family around Thanksgiving & Christmas for generations due to show schedules. Now they have no shows, but can't gather due to safety precautions. That's who I feel bad for. Not those who can't gather this 1 time.

Breaking News: The German government announces immediate financial support to the arts sector and for freelancers due to the #COVID19 crisis. https://t.co/lQvssM9wGl…
#TheatreHoroscope: Sure, mock the folks using a horoscope to help their show. It's not like y'all didn't have to be given a picture chart & a bunch of songs to sing just so you'd finally wash your damn hands.
We need this right now in the United States. We also need to ensure that Emergency Paid Leave measures apply to displaced entertainment workers and freelancers, and not just a select few workers.
