DAVID MARCUS: Dems' Kennedy Center gay ‘Guerrilla Theater’ stunt is why their act wears thin

I m sorry to description that the theater kids in the Democrat Party are at it again this time quite literally and in Washington s jewel of the performing arts the Kennedy Center On Monday night Sen John Hickenlooper D-Colo put on the Love is Love concert co-hosted by Democrat Sens Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin Jacky Rosen of Nevada Brian Schatz of Hawaii and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts as an affair to protest what they claim is anti-LGBT bias at the arts center DEMOCRATIC SENATORS HOST PRIDE CONCERT AT KENNEDY CENTER TO PROTEST TRUMP TAKEOVERThe show featuring Broadway stars and a gay men s chorus in the -seat Justice Forum was invitation only and no you were not invited It turns out Hickenlooper had reached out to Broadway producer Jeffrey Seller to co-produce the show the same Seller behind the hit musical Hamilton and who in recent times canceled a production at the Kennedy Center along with the show s creator Lin Manuel-Miranda also in protest against alleged anti-gay bias The senators used a little-known provision that allows them to rent space at the Kennedy Center as a perk of the job Who knew Setting aside the fact that the merits of the claim that the Kennedy Center has somehow become anti-gay fall somewhere between wet tissue paper flimsy and non-existent the form of this protest by powerful Democrats warrants specific scrutiny and can tell us a lot According to The New York Times Hickenlooper reached out to Seller and sought if he craved to make chosen guerrilla theater which for anyone who knows anything about theater is absolutely hilarious Guerrilla theater often associated with the Living Theater founded in is when a company just takes over a space and starts putting on a show In the s they used to have stage lights they could plug into municipal light poles for example What guerrilla theater is definitively and unquestionably not is of the most of powerful human beings on earth asking a super-rich Broadway producer to put on a concert in one of the greater part venerated performance spaces in America that they can rent by Congressional prerogative That is in fact the perfect polar opposite of guerrilla theater This confusion by Hickenlooper and Seller is an incredibly illuminating window into the current mindset of the far-left elites in the Democrat Party and their cultural wingmen They think they are being raw and edgy when authentically they just look ridiculous We see this performative nonsense everywhere from Democrats whether in Corey Booker s farcical filibuster Rep Eric Swalwell s cringeworthy TikTok skits or elected leaders getting themselves arrested on purpose for eager cameras They think all of these things like their guerilla theater are provocative and brave a counter-culture that stands up to Trump and all his alleged crimes What these prancing Democrats fail to understand is just how inauthentic their antics are to the everyday Americans who can see through them like Superman checking what's in the fridge without opening the door Democrats and their advisers have lost sight of the difference between symbolism and reality Booker wasn t filibustering any real bill members of Congress aren t really being arrested in any meaningful way and senators sure as hell did not really occupy the Kennedy Center Everybody knows it's all for show because they have seen the show before Hickenlooper and Seller thought they were speaking their truth to the power of Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell a gay man who they absurdly accuse of anti-gay bias because he wants the institution he leads to focus on artistic excellence instead of identity grievance In fact it is Grennell and the new board of directors at the Kennedy Center who are pushing back against decades of hegemonic left-wing power in arts and lifestyle and at the slightest threat to its power the political and artistic left has thrown a hissy fit Americans don t need guerrilla theater from our elected administrators especially those who have no idea what guerrilla theater really is CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONDemocrats need to wake up to the fact that just doing one more performative stunt isn t going to convince Americans they are living in a fascist dictatorship and should come running back to their party While Republicans are tackling the budget and the boundary the Democrats are making sure that gay people aren t underrepresented in theater which is like making sure that guys named Cheech aren t underrepresented in the mafia The American people have no idea who leads the Democrats what they stand for or what policies they would enact it is my job to know these things and I don t even know because they won t tell us For now at least the theater kids are gonna be theater kids so keep your Playbills handy you never know what mind numbingly awful show these Democrats may put on next CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM DAVID MARCUS
