Afternoon Update: The Shows Must Go On (For Now)! Broadway Takes On Winter Storm Niko

Bundle up, New York! Winter Storm Niko is here, and we're likely to be left with lots of snow, ice, and chaos in his wake.

So far (as of 12pm Thursday), there are no cancellations for any Broadway or off-Broadway shows (for Thursday or beyond), but stay tuned to BroadwayWorld for regular updates!

On the cancelation of Broadway shows due to inclement weather, the Broadway League's Charlotte St. Martin told BroadwayWorld: "Our goal is to remain open no matter what- until it's no longer safe for the cast, the crew and theatre-goers to attend a Broadway show. 60-70% of our theatre-goers are from outside New York City, and many of which are already in town when these storms hit. We do everything we can to get the shows on."
