It was a rainy day. Sorry NYC we were not dressed as usual for Broadway. We were wearing raincoats and carrying backpacks with wet umbrellas. We did not stick out at all.

FWIW, I always find that people in DC dress up way more for the theatre than in NYC.

That’s because locals go to the Kennedy center more than locals go to broadway. Broadway is for tourists… don’t believe me? Ask a New Yorker. They’re afraid they’ll catch a case of the Ozarks if they get within a few blocks of Times Square or Broadway theaters.

I saw someone in a taffeta skirt with sweatpants on underneath. You can wear anything these days.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Parents teach respect and values to their children, including decorum and appropriate attire for various occasions. Including the Kennedy Center.

I dress up my littles in their nicest/dressiest clothes.

It’s fun to dress up and the performers and staff at the show appreciate you showing respect for their hard work. It elevates the experience.
