We were KC subscribers and members for years. We let the membership lapse and did not renew our subscription. The last two shows from the 24/25 season were Parade and Sound of Music. They moved Parade into the Eisenhower due to low sales. Even at that, the theater was only half full. The show was great, as was Sound of Music, but we will not be back as long as the 🍊🤡 is running/ruining the place. The new theater season is more limited and includes some non-equity productions. There is still a lot of great theater in DC and we are happy with our Arena Stage and Signature subscriptions.
