The Brattle Theatre faced a temporary closure due to a plumbing emergency that kept it shut over a holiday weekend. Despite this setback, creative director Ned Hinkle announced that the community rallied behind the theater, allowing it to raise the necessary funds to cover potential losses from cancelled showings. The theater's quick response and the support from locals enabled them to not just recover from the lost revenue but also to surpass their fundraising goal, showcasing the community's strong connection to this historic venue.
"We are totally whole from that. We made up the money that we did lose by not being open in donations, which is totally amazing."
"It's not that we were swimming in water or anything like that. The Brattle has been teasing their 'snazzy new carpet' in the lobby that was put in last week, but that wasn't affected by the water."
