In Michigan (dance company).

In Baltimore (opera).

In San Jose (musical theater).

In Massachusetts (musical theater).

In Los Angeles (LA MOCA, not officially sunk, but tossing in the storm).

In San Fransisco (the Magic Theater, home base for Sam Shepard and premieres by Anne Bogart, David Mamet, Charles Mee, Stones in His Pockets, more).

And Michael Kaiser, president of the Kennedy Center, calls for an arts bailout:

The arts have historically received short shrift from our political leaders, who all too often seem happy to offer bland endorsements of our work without backing those words with financial appropriations. But the arts in the United States provide 5.7 million jobs and account for $166 billion in economic activity annually. This sector is at serious risk. Because the arts are so fragmented, no single organization's demise threatens the greater economy and claims headlines. But thousands of organizations, and the state of America's arts ecology, are in danger.

We need an emergency grant for arts organizations in America, and we need legislation that allows unusual access to endowments. Washington must encourage foundations to increase their spending rates during this crisis, and we need immediate tax breaks for corporate giving.
