As Broadway is preparing to reopen, so is New 42 Studios, the rehearsal studio nestled in the heart of the theatre district.

CBS chatted with Russell Granet, president & CEO of New 42, about what those preparations have been like.

"Come mid-August, we are booked solid. And my guess is that's true for every rehearsal studio in the city," he said. "Which is a challenge because you want to be able to accommodate everyone who calls, and if the protocols change, that means some of Our Studios could potentially be freed up."

"It is a sign that things are coming back, so as much as it's a challenge, we're trying to be as open and accommodating as possible. The good news there is that it's a sign that theatre, dance, the arts are coming back."
