This is fun and clever (and excellent down-time marketing):

Members of the Radio City Rockettes are hosting weekly dance classes on their Instagram Live account. The classes are on Thursdays at 12 p.m. ET, and they host a weekly fitness class each Tuesday at 12 p.m. ET.

I smiled wide when I first read of the #Rockettes initiative on Playbill.com—as I read the story, in my mind, I heard the music and the lyrics from A Chorus Line:

“Stage left, boys. Let’s do the ballet combination. First group of girls, second group follow. A-one, two, three, four, five, six…”

It is comforting to me (and inspiring) how different organizations and groups come to terms with lost income, shutdowns, and layoffs—and that arts groups are, in so many different ways, leading the charge.

Support an arts organization, if you’re able. And feel free to comment and share.
