Broadway shows have been shuttered since March 2020 because of the pandemic but many have recently announced reopening dates starting in August and September. Most productions are still working out COVID-19 and masking protocols for cast, crew and audiences members but Springsteen's is thought to be the first to state that vaccinations will be mandatory for audiences.
