The stagehands did back us in 2003 when we went on strike. That strike only lasted for 4 days as the mayor put pressure on both sides to resolve. Our mayor has a laissez-faire attitude this time & I'm not sure why. He should step in.

Leon is correct. All of this trickles down. Subs also get hurt as do restaurants, hotels, parking lots, etc... Broadway is a huge industry for NYC, and according to the producers the city is losing 15-17 million dollars per day.
