The return ofSaturday Night Livewas a step back to normalcy for the cast, the television, and studio audience, and yes there was a studio audience.
Tickets to SNL are always free but hard to get and the October 3rd show was no different, but the studio audience on Saturday got paid to watch the show.
The added bonus is part of New York’s new requirements for resuming live shows and paying the audience like crew members. One audience member said he and his crew walked out with $150 checks.
Other requirements include having only 25 percent audience capacity or less than 100 people. Everyone had to have their temperatures taken and take a rapid COVID test to attend the show.
Would you accept this check for being in a live audience in NYC during this pandemic? I would LMAO -@LaCrystalRosas
