AS CAPITOL THEATER BOARD MEMBERS…LED BY ROGER HATTEBERG…PREPARE TO PUT ON A HOLIDAY FUNDRAISER, THEY’RE DOING SO WITHOUT A FULL-TIME EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
AT THE SAME TIME, A PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT & MARKETING COMPANY IS GEARING UP TO TAKE OVER OPERATION OF MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM…AND DON’T THINK THOSE NOW RUNNING THE CAPITOL HAVEN’T NOTICED. BECKY ANDERSON WAS A FOUNDING MEMBER AND A DRIVING FORCE BEHIND THE CAPITOL’S REJUVENATION, BUT EVEN SHE BELIEVES…AFTER A YEAR-AND-A-HALF IN OPERATION AS A LOCAL PERFORMING ARTS CENTER…SOMETHING’S GOT TO CHANGE, BECAUSE THE THEATER IS LOSING MONEY.
IT MIGHT HAPPEN…IT MIGHT NOT…BUT WHETHER VENU-WORKS AND THE CAPITOL COME TO SOME SORT OF AN AGREEMENT OR THEY DON’T, IT’LL PROBABLY TAKE AWHILE TO SHAKE OUT.
