The figures revealed by this report, prepared on the basis of a survey of 187 theaters at the end of April, are going to give a disappointing number. More than 40% of theaters have faced difficulties due to the continuing impact of the epidemic.

According to this survey, by the end of March, 20% of the staff had been laid off. Most of them are small or medium sized theaters, whose seating capacity is less than 1000. 42% of theaters are in danger of being closed forever. With only 10% of theaters, it is expected that it can start again with the change. The Chinese government has also said in one of its statements that where the risk of coronavirus is low, theaters can be reopened with reduced capacity and daily disinfecting measures. But it has not been implemented yet.
