Whenever the <strong>Walnut</strong> hasstrayed from a populist program, the theatre hasgone bankrupt. When I came here 29 years ago,we had no programs and no audience. Today weenjoy the largest subscription of any theatre inthe world. So, my thanks to our loyal audienceand a warm welcome to newcomers who enjoyand believe in what we do. I have tremendousadmiration for the artists who have dedicatedtheir lives to the theatre and the <strong>Walnut</strong>, in particular.Our theatre is a non-profit 501-C3 institutionand we rely on contributed income toextend our reach into the community. Lastseason we reached more than 110,000 studentsin our city schools. We have 40 trustees whogive their time, wisdom and contributions tohelp guide this historical treasure. I came to the<strong>Walnut</strong> in 1982, and I am as excited now aboutour future as I was in the beginning. My heartfeltthanks to all who enter this theatre.
