"We are giving the theatre its best chance of long-term survival," said theatre chairwoman Paula Meir of the decision.
"The trading environment has never been more uncertain, and we were faced with a stark choice: risk our financial reserves by attempting to run with socially-distanced audiences, or mothball the theatre for nine months," Meir said. "We ran several financial scenarios, and even with reasonable audience numbers, trading would have been challenging. And if audiences don't return as hoped, it would be disastrous."
