The Eccles Theatre Facebook page recently posted a link to a short video about the thousands and thousands of Swarovski crystals and hours upon hours of intricate stitching it took to embellish the upcoming production of Disney’s “Aladdin.”
It’s not only ludicrous that a show spends that kind of money on a costume that could only be seen up close if it were in a lobby display, but sad that those costs are passed on to a public, many of which can’t afford the outrageous ticket prices.
Publicly supported art should be accessible to all of the public.
