The UK put a Report saying that musicals should not si g when they return to the stage...
I find this puzzling
Musicals you have to sing if you dont its called a play

One solution maybe record the album and use as a play back???

Snarky comment: Some musicals would be better without the singing.

I get it, lots of spitting going on when people sing but that also happens when they talk on stage as well. So, this article is just dumb (it's The Daily Mail) and makes little sense. 

The West End will open when it's safe to do so and when actors can act properly again.
