| I don't recall ever saying any of that. It's pretty amazing that my comments are, on the one hand, being considered evidence that I am anti black and anti gay by Singapore while at the same time they're being considered anti white and anti straight by you. What does that tell us about how much people seem to project their own willingness to be pissed off onto strangers on the Internet? |

| I didn't call you anti-white or anti-straight. And I'm sorry if it came off as that. I'm just going off your sentence " Hence, completely reworking things that did not feature the contributions of nonwhite, nonstraight, non cisgender males when they were being created." I'm sorry if I misread the intention there as agreeing with Encores that shows that fit into that description (aka maybe 85%+ of broadway musicals) need to be reworked if they're to be produced (even in concert format). |

| I'm speaking to how Encores is specifically dealing with the conundrum, which, this season has been to A. resurrect one unbeloved show about a Black family and have creators of color rework it to the point where they didn't even provide bios of the original creative team in the Playbill and B. Resurrect another show with no creators of color involved and ask a creator of color to redo THAT. I have been pretty careful to neither condemn nor endorse the action that they took. But it's obvious that that is their current tact. Whether you think it's correct or not is your opinion and you have a right to it . But simply acknowledging facts that are prima facie evident is not an expression of an opinion. |

| I'm with you there. Though I am a bit, at this point, more willing to sprinkle in some condemnation, if not at the intention or spirit of the intention... then at the execution, or what the execution retroactively tells us about the limits of or holes in their plan/intention/mission, and the misguided nature of this being the new mission of Encores specifically. |
