2500 seating, huh? Pretty big, that must be a multi-purpose venue as well, I'd guess.
Sad about the Green Bay symphony, but it isn't over yet. Perhaps they can still be saved, ala the San Diego Opera. Also, it is irksome to me that not just the media, but the arts institutions themselves keep repeating this mantra that everything is failing. Actually, there are more orchestras doing well than ever. Musicians have had to do their own advocacy/education on this issue, though, as our managements apparently don't know how. What other business do you know of that continually trashes itself??!! OK, rant over.
