Officials say the sites are expected to vaccinate over 25,000 people throughout the week, with more sites coming online every week.
On Broadway, the tethers are empty and the silence is deafening, and so many are out of work. What needs to happen right now is New Yorkers and New York artists doing what they did in front of audiences again and being paid for it, director Zack Winokur said.
His 2019 musical tribute to poet Langston Hughes caught the eye of producer Scott Rudin, who is teaming up with De Niro s business partner, Jane Rosenthal, for this effort.
True to its name, NY PopsUp events will take place with no advance warning to avoid congestion.
It will include 100 days of 300 free pop-up performances across the state.
NY PopsUp hopes to help revive the arts due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They are free, not designed to be pre-scheduled and draw a crowd, because we actually don t want the crowd, Cuomo said.
However, everyone will get a chance to see the performances, as the events will then be shown online. Cities have taken a real blow during COVID, and the economy will not come back fast enough on its own - we must bring it back, Cuomo said. Creative synergies are vital for cities to survive, and our arts and cultural industries have been shut down all across the country, taking a terrible toll on workers and the economy. We want to be aggressive with reopening the State and getting our economy back on track, and NY PopsUp will be an important bridge to the broader reopening of our world-class performance venues and institutions. New York has been a leader throughout this entire pandemic, and we will lead once again
