This is a cultural disater for me personally. I have attended every showing of Metropolitan Opera Live at the Dendy since they began and I was looking forward to the new season starting in December, now it’s back to the cultural desert in this remote corner of NSW. What a blow to my quality of life!
Greedy greedy greedy landlords. They don’t call them Lords for nothing, as they lord it over business and the rest of us. That greed has now deprived us of a wonderful business that serviced the whole community. Shame on you, all for a fist full of dollars.
