Fauci, the country’s leading infectious disease expert, clarified in a phone interview Friday that he was referring to when people could return to theatergoing at their pre-coronavirus comfort levels. But Fauci said that in green-zone areas — those with very low community transmission — indoor theaters may be able to return sooner if people wear masks. “As long as there is infection in the community, you do not want indoor spaces with crowds,” he said Friday. The Broadway League said in a statement Friday that it would continue to put the health of employees and audiences first as it works to help theaters reopen.
