The comedian's Wednesday act at First Avenue was moved to Varsity Theater, which said it would honor all First Avenue tickets that were originally purchased for the show. Separate shows had already been scheduled for Thursday and Friday at the Varsity Theater.
In its statement, First Avenue said its team and patrons had"worked hard to make our venues the safest spaces in the country, and we will continue with that mission." "We believe in diverse voices and the freedom of artistic expression, but in honoring that, we lost sight of the impact this would have," the theater said.
It also acknowledged that"there are some who will not disagree with this decision," and said those with complaints were"welcome to send feedback."Chantal Da Silva
