“Bars, nightclubs and taverns are holding "theater nights" to take advantage of an exemption in the ban that allows smoking by performers in theatrical productions. In participating bars, every employee and customer is an actor, and drinking, chatting, playing pool -- and smoking -- are part of the performances. Since the first performance on Feb. 9, more than 100 bars across the state have joined the protest.”
It will not be long before the local legislature corrects the loophole. Nonetheless, the exercise is a wonderful example of taking what they give and making the most out of it.
