Sadly, I heard lots of cheering for Trump, and very few (drowned out boos). When the show stared maybe 15 percent empty seats in the orchestra level? Then, bizarrely, ten minutes in , the doors on both sides opened and probably 100-200 ppl streamed in (in the dark, cast singing!) and began shuffling down aisles looking for empty seats. After about 5 minutes of this (so rude and distracting) all seats were filled.

I heard that too. Which is interesting, considering the one or two posters on here who insist that only MAGAs would dare go to a nazi institution like the Kennedy center. Sounds like the majority of those in attendance were just normal people, mostly democrats who dislike trump, who also want to see Les Mis. Imagine that.
When one group of ticket holders learned that the president, his deputy, and their wives would be at the center, they reportedly donated their tickets to a group of drag performers, who duly protested in the auditorium to cheers from the audience, a moment captured in videos posted to social media last night.
The musical was adapted by Claude-Michel Schonberg, Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel in 1980 from Victor Hugo’s sprawling novel of 1862 and tells the story of French peasant Jean Valjean, whom the single-minded Inspector Javert pursues over a petty crime as France lurches towards revolution, with young idealists coming together to oppose a government they consider corrupt.
The point was not lost on California Governor Gavin Newsom, currently at odds with the Trump administration over the policing of anti-ICE demonstrations in Los Angeles, who tweeted in exasperation: “Someone explain the plot to him.”

This entire site is elitest bores. It caters to them like Fox News caters to MAGA.
I prefer educated and elite to uneducated and crazy.

Nazi performance tickets
I mean they're for Les Mis, which is hardly Nazi propaganda, and they were purchased before the election, so, spare me.
I think PP means that no one wants to buy them now because it would be supporting the Nazi party, where the Nazi leader is now the chairman of the Kennedy Center.
I know what she meant and I still rolled my eyes. Just looking for apolitical, concrete advice on how to sell Kennedy Center tickets online, if anyone has done so before.
And you got what you were looking for! Only a MAGA would want tickets.
I thought you people MAGA are too stupid and uncultured to go to the theatre. So which is it?
For the record, most people who live close enough to the KC to attend shows there are far from MAGA. They just aren’t extremist enough to boycott the KC.

Anonymous wrote:Wow this thread blew up! This is OP. I still see no concrete advice on the logistics of selling them, but, I put them on stub hub and sold them for above face value within an hour and transferred with Apple wallet to the buyers email. In case this info helps anyone else in the future who can’t attend a show.
Thankfully they were for tomorrow’s show , not tonight’s.
Anyways seems like there was more than enough demand despite what a few of you guys seem to think.
