After we filmed the podcast - the media started reporting on all the cancellations at the Kennedy Center. We then got “friendly inquiries” from CNN and The Washington Post asking if we were cancelling. This is designed to intimidate us and our cast and crew. It’s like the mafia expressing concern for that nice restaurant - it would be a shame if something happened to it. They want us to buckle under the pressure. We will NOT.Below is our statement on the cancellation attempt. The OCTOBER 7 play will absolutely be on stage on January 28th.Good riddance to these taxpayer-funded cosplaying rebels. They seem to think producing art is about them feeling comfortable and cozy. Artists should always go where they feel uncomfortable, even unwanted—if they want to change the world, that's where they should be, instead of speaking into their taxpayer-funded echo chamber.These performative walkouts are for their friends and funders—they don't care about the wider audience or creating new audiences. And they wonder why so many theaters are struggling?Even their friends are bored with the woke, clichéd, and hectoring art they are producing. "Doug Varone and Dancers," the New York dance company, said their walkout was "morally exhilarating."That's very telling.They create to make themselves feel better, not the audience.We create to bring the truth to the audience. Good to see these woke “artists” leave the stage. It leaves more stage time for the rest of us who want to produce genuine art.We are already thinking about future events at the Kennedy Center.Phelim McAleer & Ann McElhinneyJust to remind everyone about what we are planning for the Kennedy Center.We are taking OCTOBER 7, our verbatim play, to the venue on January 28. The play will be in the beautiful Terrace Theater. We went to Israel after the October 7 massacres and interviewed survivors, the bereaved and heroes who fought back. We turned their testimony into the play that has been performed across the country from Off-Broadway in New York to the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. It has also been performed on several other college campuses - places that really need to hear the truth. The performance at the Kennedy Center will be intimate, raw, and unforgettable. Please watch the podcast to hear the full story - you can also get tickets at the link below. I really want to see you there. The New York Post said OCTOBER 7 was "Spellbinding..powerful and a sanctuary for truth. It breathes life into characters that will hopefully inspire people…When you can put yourself in the shoes of what these people went through, that's what creates empathy. That's very important ... right now in this country, regardless of your politics." So please come see the play. If you can’t come to DC you can donate to fight the bullies and censors at the link below. And while the mainstream media is obsessing over the fake genocide in Gaza, 7,000 Christians were slaughtered by Islamist radicals in Nigeria in the first eight months of this year. However the mainstream media is pretending that they are being killed in a land war caused by climate change. This week we interviewed Brian Orme, the CEO of Global Christian Relief. He has been to Nigeria and has a team working to aid displaced, persecuted Christians, terrorized by radical muslims.Watch the scoop to hear what’s really going on!And the Los Angeles Times shocked us, as they actually did their jobs and reported actual news on the true cause of the deadly Palisades fire and how the city administration tried to cover it up. Watch the scoop to see our coverage of the Palisades wreckage.
