Trump’s Kennedy Center Cancels Pride Concert -
A Peacock Among Pigeons
That Would Have Featured Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington

The Kennedy Center canceled a concert planned for May 21 that was to feature the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, DC, performing alongside the National Symphony Orchestra. The two groups were planning to collaborate on a piece called “A Peacock Among Pigeons,” with GMCW serving as the orchestra’s guest chorus. No explanation was given.

The Kennedy Center has seen a raft of cancellations since President Trump took over the arts center last week and installed his loyalist Ric Grenell as its interim president and himself as chairman of the board. Trump had complained about drag shows at the complex (which accounted for a fraction of its programming), but as the Wall Street Journal reported recently, Trump told his aides he “ never felt at home at the performing arts center.” Grenell has begun to fire employees at the center, the Journal reports, and it says that Trump hopes to reconfigure the Kennedy Center Honors to reflect his tastes, perhaps honoring Sylvester Stallone and Lee Greenwood.
