The media might have been the first responder. Their mobile units all over New York City converged on the area as fast as possible. In addition to reporters on the ground, helicopters with cameras hovered high overhead, surveying the damage. The other theaters all over town were immediately closed out of fears that bombs might already be placed inside them, ready to bring them down like happened here at the Lambrecht Theater which was nothing but rubble resting atop its giant sea of broken dreams. Hundreds of audience members were feared dead including major stars of film and Broadway. In addition, the mayor of New York and his police commissioner were feared among the dead deep in the rubble of brick and powdered plaster.
