It’s clear he and Sellers don’t want Republicans going to their shows.Americans see you, Lin.” – Homocon Richard (But I will cancel anything that we don’t like.) Grenell"

You just vomited out a big fat load of lies. They simply do not want to be associated in any way with the Trump administration and anyone with two connected brain cells would easily understand why."

Honey, do you even know how to read?? It is a quote from Richard Grenell. NOT what I said. Now delete your bs statement and apologize. You are one of the people who make it miserable here and why I don’t comment often and following this post will not be compelled to comment again. "

Calm down queen. You posted what you posted how you posted it."

It never ceases to amaze me how STUPID you are.

I have tickets to Parade at KC (bought them ages ago before any of this happened) and if they do go forward I'll have a bit of a dilemma.

Rich Grenell complaining about programming not making money like that’s how non-profits are supposed to work. You offset the costs with donations and funding from outside sources.

This morning the Kennedy Center's Ministry of Propaganda and Public Enlightenment (f/k/a the Goebbels position) put out a "complete" list of shows and events that were cancelled --- but somehow they conveniently left off FINN?

Responding to Call_me_jorge.... I hope so, re: the National. It is so much better for Broadway shows than the Kennedy Center.

Whether people who don't go up to NYC realize that, I don't know. But it's cringeworthy for me. So much so that I once wrote to the WaPo's former theater critic  and was thrilled to find that he was in complete agreement with my assessment.  I haven't been back to the KC since then.

I'm bitterly unhappy, you might say enraged, by the Dictator 101 move to control the arts. And while I wish it weren't the reason, I'd love to see more Broadway road shows and preview runs in the downtown theaters.

Bentley, please don't stop posting here. Anyone with two connected brain cells understands exactly what you meant and appreciates your contribution. The only things that user does here is harass people with different opinions and ask if there's an intermission to everything. And if there's not an intermission he probably screams at the box office employee and cancels the tickets and comes back here to tell us he canceled his tickets. He is the worst of us. Only truly miserable and insecure people can't simply admit they're wrong and move on. 

Keep posting, you are actually valued here ❤️
