“#Opera companies typically cover only 30-60% of costs through ticket sales, with the remainder from grants & donations that cannot be secured years ahead when productions must be planned,” the statement read.

It also added that the new model conflicts with the opera’s artistic mission of balancing popular titles with lesser-known works to serve diverse audiences.

…The #opera said the decision was driven by the elimination or reduction of support previously provided by the #KennedyCenter, as well as changes to the center’s business model, which now require productions to be fully funded in advance — a shift the opera called incompatible with how opera companies operate.

The opera said in a statement it would “seek an amicable early termination of its affiliation agreement with the Kennedy Center” & “resume operations as a fully independent nonprofit entity.”

After the opera’s announcement, the #KennedyCenter claimed it had ended the relationship.

Washington National Opera is severing ties with the Kennedy Center. The company has performed there since 1977. A spokesperson told @newyorktimes that they will seek other venues in Washington, D.C., and attributed the split to a decrease in ticket sales and supporter donations. Here's the full story from Playbill.

We watched the premiere of the new opera “Grounded” last night at the Kennedy Center, put on by the Washington National opera. It was a very good performance and a great theatrical experience.

The set was amazingly well done, very high tech but not distracting — instead the tech helped tell the story. The performers were strong. /1
