• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Actors had just reached an agreement, but they will strike

  Speaker 2: as well. Not strike, but they'll walk the picket line, yeah,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: to support, to support the musicians and the stage managers.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: So yeah, most theaters would be dark.

  Speaker 2: A strike. I really hope the show goes on. I
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: hope they can work this out. Musicians deserve it. They're
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: so wonderful, and they're so so wonderful, and they're such
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: an integral part of what's happening at the theater. Yeah,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: you know, live theater. It makes it.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Maybe you know the answer to this question. I don't
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: want to put you on the spot, but I was
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: talking to our friend Danielle Monaro down the hall about
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: an hour ago, and she said, there's one show not
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: affected by the musicians strug.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Ragtime, Ragtime?
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Why uh, because.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I believe they're at Lincoln Center and it's a different
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: like it's not the Broadway League.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: It's it's somebody more than I do. Okay, okay, yeah.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: That's my very non technical answer. But yes, brag Time
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: won't be affected.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Rag Time would go on.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Ragtime would go on. That's it interesting because it's not
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: it's not Broadway League. It's like different produce something to
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: that effect.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: But again than I could, yeah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: But everybody else so, and I know people, you know,
