He saved it from financial ruin? Aren't tickets sales down 50%. I assume it is big busses of tourist's.

Ugh. I live within walking distance. I would not go with free tickets much less paid ones. Where is worm brained RFK Jr.? What losers.

Not everyone can sip their lattes and scroll the internet and keep up their principles like we can.
Look these are working artists. It is ROUGH out there. They do not need judgment about what they might have to do to make a living at their profession.
There's a time where you stand up or you don't. Period.

Thanks! This made me chuckle.
Another chuckle if the “Boo!” sounds like the old woman in Princess Bride. Plus, I’d buy that horn.

Save the lectures for your mirror. It's a post about the Kennedy Center.
I think you're reading into that comment incorrectly.

This is the nail in the coffin though. I'm not going.
I do wonder what will become of it. It's awful. Ticket sales are already in the crapper and this will make it worse.
Yes they can't get any decent shows in there. I feel very sorry for the Opera and Symphony, I know it's not their fault, but just, no way.
They are getting first The Outsiders national tour. Which I would like to see. But not going.
The symphony performers, I don't know what happens to them. Playing at Wolf Trap is not going to keep them afloat. I think their only hope is big R donors subsidize the whole operation and keep them going playing to low attendance. But is it even their priority to keep the symphony? If it's a total loss for them maybe they all just get fired.
The National Theatre has SO many better touring broadway shows. Shame on Outsiders for booking TKC. Their loss.
Angelina Jolie is one of the producers too. Disappointing.
