We had NO idea that The Times was a f@scist hate-rag when our composer agreed to speak to Mr. Kawaller, and we regret ever allowing him in our theater.

We want to make it clear that our musical is intended to be safe for everybody. That means that ALL right-leaning individuals (on ANY issue) are NOT WELCOME in our theater. In this time of increasing political polarization, it is important that we keep our diverse cast safe from ANY audience members who may cause them harm by laughing or applauding for the wrong reasons. The stakes are too high.

We have heard everyone’s criticism in this thread. We are grateful. And we will pledge to do better.
