The Carousel is not the only dinner theater, as far as I know The Tangier is still open even though you're more likely to go there for Blue Oyster Cult than broadway.

Whether a recession develops into a severe and prolonged depression depends on a number of circumstances. Among them are the extent and quality of credit extended during the previous period of prosperity, the amount of speculation permitted, the ability of monetary policy and fiscal policy to reverse the downward trend, and the amount of excess productive capacity in existence.

For what it's worth, Britannica sez a depression is:

in economics, major downswing in the business cycle that is characterized by sharply reduced industrial production, widespread unemployment, serious declines or cessations of growth in construction activity, and great reductions in international trade and capital movements. Unlike minor business contractions that may occur in one country independently of business cycles in other countries, severe depressions have usually been nearly worldwide in scope.

The worldwide scope of what's going on is pretty clear, so the odds are interesting right now.
