APRIL 28, 2020 "The questions don’t get easier as the industry looks to the horizon. Consider, for example, a limited re-opening, allowing ticketholders to sit six feet apart from each other. 'If you're in a theater with under 40 seats and you have 10 people show up, theoretically you could do this,' says Ginny Louloudes, executive director of A.R.T/NY, a theatrical service organization. 'But the question is not can you do it - it's who will come? When will they feel safe?'"

MARCH 24, 2020 "Ginny Louloudes, the executive director of the Alliance of Resident Theaters in New York, said that it’s already difficult asking the government to support the arts when there’s no pandemic. Now, administrators have to tread lightly.
'We have to realize that the city needs to build hospitals, it needs to staff hospitals, it needs masks,' she said. 'We have to be very careful about how we frame the message.'" |

MARCH 20, 2020 "Ginny Louloudes, the executive director of the Alliance of Resident Theaters/New York, was over the moon when she saw the announcement. 'It’s so phenomenal that this money is for 12 weeks,' she said. 'This will help you get through the end of the fiscal year, and more importantly, the end of the city and state’s fiscal year. I cried when I read the text from my development director,' Louloudes said, still emotional a few hours after she heard. 'I knew I was carrying stress in my body, but I had no idea how much.' People in the arts are suffering huge losses every day, and the economic impact on the city will no doubt be enormous. This effort, Louloudes hopes and believes, will get the little theaters she has served for so long through the month of June, if not made whole, then at least still alive. 'The city has such a robust appreciation of the arts,' she said. 'And art is what’s going to get people through this.'" |
