you are missing the point! the alternatives are close the orchestra down
and use tape music. or close the whole show!

radio city music hall (the strike did get resolved and the orchestra is
back)
washington ballet in washington dc. all performances canceled.

is it worth NOT having a paycheck for so many musicians and dancers?

the nutcracker puts people in the seats of the theater and musicians and
dancers get paid! can that be so bad?
