Prof. Ulf Schirmer, Intendant and General Music Director of the Oper Leipzig, voiced his support for this decision: »We have always known that an escalating situation in this pandemic would require additional measures, and we are now seeing that put into action. At the core of our consideration is, first and foremost, the safety and welfare of our audiences and our employees. As a result, and in close cooperation with the City of Leipzig and other cultural institutions, we are doing our part to ensure that we will soon be able to experience musical theater together again, as our shared feelings and emotions are made tangible in a spirit of togetherness. This type of interpersonal contact is our greatest strength, and in times like this, our weak point.«
