#6 The women have been told they do not have to participate in the show

Because they're not wedding photogs or bakers?

#7 What will be interesting is whether there is a quiet change in her employment status after the event. The Rockettes want to be an apolitical organization so that they don't drive away half their potential audience; I can see not fighting with dancers now so as not to give the story legs, but making it clear later that being a Rockette is a privilege many would willing keep their mouths shut to have, and those who aren't will be replaced. There are a great many tall, leggy, underemployed dancers out there, after all.
