Social Distanced Opera Audience

Opera-lovers await the start of a rehearsal of the first socially-distanced performance by English National Opera (ENO) in the London Coliseum which has remained closed throughout the Coronavirus pandemic lockdown, on 24th October 2020, in London, England. Musicians and singers on stage are separated appropriate to government restrictions and audience members are seated with same household groups. The Marriage of Figaro was ENO's last show on 14th March, and the Coliseum has stayed closed until now. The UK’s theatre ticket revenue contributes £1.28bn to the nation’s economy, in which there are 290,000 jobs (70% are at risk) so the government has announced a financial rescue package for the Arts industry, a £1.15bn support for cultural organisations in England that is made up of £880m in grants and £270m of repayable loans. The 2,395-seat Coliseum (1904) is a Baroque revival (Wrenaissance) style theatre, built as one of West End's largest and most luxurious variety theatres.00
