The Death of Live Performance

If our earlier coverage of the Event Promoters’ Ordinance here and here hasn’t scared you into contacting your local representative to protect live music, consider this: the law will also affect those producing and promoting live theater. Save Chicago Culture points out that if the ordinance passes our vibrant performance community may dwindle to Wicked and Jersey Boys. Please help prevent that dystopian image from ever becoming a reality by contacting your alderman and asking him or her not to support the law. It worked last time!
