RBTL Considering Suburban Locations for Theater

The Rochester Broad­way The­ater League is so angry that Ren Square didn’t include them they’re tak­ing them­selves to the sub­urbs.

Here’s a hint for them. Buf­falo and its metro area is much larger than Rochester’s. There’s a rea­son they can attract much larger shows (and not just for Broad­way pro­duc­tions) and why Rochester so often gets bypassed. Adding seats won’t nec­es­sar­ily make up for the fact that there’s just fewer Roches­tar­i­ans who would go. It was wise for the city to ques­tion this and remove it from the plan. If RBTL can find a sub­ur­ban loca­tion and fund their the­ater with­out soak­ing the tax­pay­ers, more power to them. But I have a feel­ing they won’t.
