Shakespeare in the Park cutback

Kate Taylor in the Sun today reports back on the campaign NYC's "Cultural Institutions Group" (our bigger-wig nonprofits) are waging against the new Bloomberg arts funding reforms--which basically cut back on their allotments.

So far the biggest impact on theatre is at the Public, where Shakespeare in the Park is losing a week of shows, down to nine from ten. The fallout of that could be even bigger lines.

Then again, I personally don't need another week of "R&J" and "Midsummer", as is the program.
