Ray Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 NY Times Arts Beat piece on musicians local 802's plans to protest at Lincoln Center. Dispiriting response from the management of LC: "A spokeswoman, Betsy Vorce, said Lincoln Center had no authority over programs presented by renters of its halls." I know, all venues rent nowadays; it's just disappointing to think of the Joffrey as not being presented by LC, and treated like a college graduation. I always think the venue comes out on top in these situations; the average viewer probably won't make the distinction b/t the venue renting or presenting (the average viewer I bet assumes the latter); they get their money w/limited responsibility/liability (as Vorce's quotation illustrates). NOTE: Please excuse my extreme brain freeze here. This story is about Paul Taylor, not Joffrey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
