Buenos Aires, Mar 26 (EFE) .- (Camera: Javier Castro) After a year of pandemic and with a bleak future, the theater around the world is experiencing one of its worst crises, but the illusion and resilience of this group have prevented its collapse. With new formulas and determination, the curtain continues to rise, albeit in a symbolic way.FOOTAGE OF THEATRES IN BUENOS AIRESSOUNDBITES OF ROBERTO BISOGNO, PRESIDENT OF THE ARGENTINE ASSOCIATION OF THEATER EMPRESARIESTRANSLATIONThe commercial circuit is dying, it is an activity that has lost 95% of its annual turnover, it is a terminal situation. Some theaters are open in a testimonial way because we want to work but we are at a loss. It would have been less expensive to close and collect state aid. Some, when they open, begin to bill a little and that means that some aid is not received. Now we also receive aid despite being open, but it is insufficient aid, it is not enough. I do not want to sound too pessimistic but it will be very difficult to regain the public, regain normality. I can only speculate, we will see, I hope the second wave does not come and we can continue to recover viewers day by day
