Same here. Especially since many are in financial turmoil now that the NEA is being forced to pull their grants.

This year wasn’t great. It’s never great.

Sound of Music and Les Mis for the 2nd time in 3 years?

KC has always been the lamer option.

I am torn about not going. Many people’s jobs are affected by boycotting.

That is just silly.


NP- not silly at all. Trump's hostile takeover of KC was un-American. Good citizens need to reject his illegal acts.

It’s not a sacrifice, because the line up is terrible (and has nothing to do with Trump).

Wolf Trap, on the other hand, looks better than usual.


Agreed!

NP. If they don't want people to boycott they need to make it harder than this schedule is making it.

I'm sad about The Outsiders, which I would have liked to see, but this is otherwise an unbelievably bad line-up and they must know it. Only one show that hasn't been in DC before?? Compare to the National's line-up, which is all new. Even the one (B&B) that they say isn't new is actually a new 25th anniversary production.
