(Applause) When I took over Joe's old job at the Public in 2005, I realized one of the problems we had was a victim of our own success, which is: Shakespeare in the Park had been founded as a program for access, and it was now the hardest ticket to get in New York City.
(Applaus) Als ich 2005 Joes Stelle  beim "Public" übernahm, merkte ich, dass eins unserer Probleme ein Opfer unseres Erfolgs war. "Shakespeare in the Park" war entstanden, um Theater frei zugänglich zu machen. Aber mittlerweile war es fast unmöglich, Karten zu bekommen.
