I have seen Wokeism and DEI bring down what was once a remarkable theatre. The politicization of the arts and the rampant empty virtue signaling have resulted in plays that have little craft, less art and negative appeal. Audiences are rightly abandoning this theater. And that may be the only way to support the once great art of theater and its allied arts: don’t go.

If they will not honor their great traditions, let them die and hope for rebirth.
