I think you are probably right, Bob, but since ‘24 is two festival cycles away the question is what do you do & where do you go next year other than the Grand Lake, which made sense for an abbreviated schedule (but not ten days’ worth of programming).

The news about the Castro even reached UK news services:

Interesting to have a quote from the Roxie’s Exec Director Lex Sloan, making a cogent remark about price point even as the Guardian gets one of its facts wrong about the theatre (it’s technically a two-screen operation).
