Again, I'm feuding with Red Scare, and that extends to the entire theatre community. The reason is the same: instead of communicating plainly, you keep on trying to use your connections in the media or politics to feel me out/threaten me. Have the guts to see me as a human being and to communicate accordingly.

Red Scare needed me to triumphantly return to NY and show off how great they are.
