00:00of the fact that there were some protesters that our show has spread a lot and that's kind of
00:04um the stamp on the evening in terms of the public perception of the evening and definitely
00:09an important thing to to hear about we had those who don't know there were a few neo-nazi
00:15um protesters um from a really disgusting group outside of the theater bothering some of our
00:22patrons on their way in and saying anti-semitic things about leo frank who the show is about
00:27and just spreading anti-semitic rhetoric that led to this whole story in the first place um if you
00:33don't know about it i encourage you to look up the story and most importantly encourage you to come
00:36see the show um and it was definitely very ugly and scary but a wonderful reminder of um why we're
00:44telling this particular story and how special and powerful art and particularly theater can be
00:49and just made me feel extra extra grateful to be the one that gets to tell this particular story
00:54and to carry on this legacy of leo um and i just implore you to come and and thank you
01:01to the
01:02jacobs and the schuberts uh our theater for keeping us super safe and secure as you will be too when
