Rock Band Guster Invites ‘Finn’ Cast To Share Kennedy Center Stage

deadline.com:

Cast members of children’s musical Finn made an unexpected return to the Kennedy Center stage when rock band Guster invited the young singer-actors to join the band in a song Friday night.

In a video of the performance – the alternative rock band Guster was performing with the National Symphony Orchestra (see it below) – Guster lead singer Ryan Miller said from the Kennedy Center stage, “My friend named Michael wrote the songs for a musical called Finn,” a reference to one of the show’s three creators Michael Kooman.

Miller continued, “In the before times they were booked to play here. But as all of you know, things happened, and the show is no longer being presented by the Kennedy Center.

As the new administration has made abundantly clear, Finn’s themes of inclusivity, love, and self-acceptance aren’t going to be welcome in this building while they are in control.
