Programming at the Kennedy Center, Revised
by Emily Flake
President Trump announced his intention on Friday to bring the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington more firmly under his control, saying he would dismiss several board members and install himself as chairman. – The New York Times, February 7, 2025
In light of personnel changes at the Kennedy Center, we present some exciting new additions to the upcoming season, which promises to bring our programming into alignment with the Administration’s vision of a new “Golden Age,” as the President has put it, of American arts:
Showboat: A Tribute to Elon Musk. A nostalgic look back at an America where everyone knew their place, and an investigation of American history that asks: where did we go wrong? This production restores the language of the original. Feel free to sing along, and really hit that hard R!
Rob Schneider, A Permanent Residency. We welcome the great patriot and comedian Rob Schneider to the KC stage for a residency of at least 208 weeks. Rob’s brand of no-holds-barred humor cements his status as one of our bravest cultural warriors, defending the public from woke-mind virus, nanny-state goons, and Mexicans. Make America Laugh Again!
Kid Rock Sings the GREAT! American Songbook. One of the nation’s greatest troubadours celebrates our rich cultural heritage with his interpretations of the classics: “Over the Rainbow: I’m Just So Done With Gays,” “All That Jizz, and Other Great Musk Tweets,” and a very special rendition of “Bawitdaba,” accompanied by Germany’s oldest Aryan string quartet.
Keep us breathing fire!
