A small group of employees at this distingquished cultural center conspired with members of the chinese government to tell people in NY when they called into purchase tickets that the show was sold out. When in fact it was not sold out. This problem went on for a few days prior to the first show. Once the problem was figured out and corrected ticket sales returned to a more realistic level. It later turned out that two chinese nationals had come to NY with a large sum of cash to influence ticket sales of this well known show. Through much hard work it is now one of the biggest in NY city around chinese new year. The FBI eventually got on aboard and the two chinese nationals where taken into custody. Is it just individual's with a strong sense of nationalism. It it an organized effort by hackers or the government on the mainland , I guess history will write the script. I am so glad you provided updates and details mainstream media failed to mention I remember when my friends had a show in Manhattan a very big venue at a well none NY landmark.
