Hurricane Sandy has caused the cancellation of much of New York's theatre over the past few days. All Broadway shows are playing today, and in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, many of them are offering post-hurricane discounts and special offers, including The Performers, Grace, Chaplin, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Scandalous, Annie, The Phantom of the Opera, Nice Work If You Can Get It, War Horse, A Christmas Story - The Musical, Dead Accounts, Peter and the Starcatcher, The Heiress, Bring It On: The Musical and An Enemy of the People. BroadwayWorld has compiled a list of the current offers HERE!
 
While shows on Broadway have returned to their normal performance schedules, many of the city's off-Broadway and off-off Broadway theatres are still struggling.
