What does live theater look like for the rest of the 2021 season and going forward? Today, we talk with people making theater in our state. How have the last 15 months changed the way they engage with art and their audiences? Live theater is coming back, but what does back mean?  

If you’ve seen a live show recently — or you’re counting the minutes until you can, we want to hear from you.
