"While ticket sales have been relatively healthy—this year the company surpassed its goals—they’re never sufficient to keep up with operating expenses. The company has attained a stalwart local audience but no big-purse underwriters, and the cash-strapped university can no longer afford to keep it out of the red. No traditional source of funding has been a panacea, Barricelli says dejectedly, noting that in the future, theatre companies will have to be ever more creative about bankrolling their operations."
Exasperatingly typical. This country needs more arts funding.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
