People in theatre are usually really liberal, so naturally when we saw all of the INFLATABLE costumes on Broadway, that have become so emblematic of the "No Kings" movement, out in front of the old theatre, we assumed that it was simply more of the local ANTIFA demonstrators that have become so common on the sidewalks of our new progressive hotbed and political front, Alexandria, MN.
Also, remember that there has been a lot of "piggy" talk associated with Trump in the news cycle, lately, so it was a natural mistake for us to make.
See our previous post, viewed by over 30,000 people, which makes no mention of their theatre, although the "piggies" in the photo WERE situated, somewhat, beneith the Andria Theatre marquee. It turns out that it was all just some theatre people pan-handling for new stage curtains! Our bad. 🤷
From the comments, it sounds like the local theatre people want everyone to be clear: They are very affraid of dangerous right-wingers targeting them. NO ONE EVEN MENTIONED The Andria Theatre in the post, and yet people feel the need, in this town, to make it abundantly clear, ANYWAYS, that they do not want to be associated with anything "Liberal," or "Feminist" or "Woke" in Alexandria. Theatre people are affraid that nasty, vindictive right-wingers who control our community will pull their support if they think that the Andria Theatre is "Liberal," or "Feminist" or "Woke."
So please, everyone: Run and tell THAT.
