It’s hard to talk to creative people these days without hearing about the plan B they’ve developed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many performance venues are closed, so it’s hard to look for gigs, let alone find them. Rehearsing together without exceeding anyone’s tolerance for infection risk can be a challenge. And even if you have all the positive energy and face coverings you need, life might still force you to take a break you didn’t want.
