There have been mistakes made with theatres all over the US; many having to do with management. However, yes, one must look at the big picture ... this is local theatre; renowned, not-for-profit slices of Americana. Many of these are very historic companies, and for this reason alone, they need to be preserved.
Please give what you can; I have never even been to this theatre, yet am still considering making a large donation.
SAVE THE PALO ALTO BOWL!

"Don't let them mold your mind, they want to control mankind, seems like their only intention is to exploit the earth; and you trust in their deceit, your mind causes your defeat, and so you become an invention to distort this earth; propoganda and lies, is a plague in our lives, how much more victimized, before we realize (hey) ... they'll make it attractive, to get man destracted, corrupting your (soul), polluting your (soul), destroying (your soul, mind control) ... ooh grand master, let the people go, you put them in total confusion, to downs-troy their soul; for they practise what you preach, so they're always in your reach, hi-tech slavery in these days, its mind control"
