In a powerful statement of artistic resistance, the band Guster joined forces with the cast of the LGBTQ+ musical Finn to take the stage at the historic Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. The musical's original performances were canceled after Donald Trump's takeover as Kennedy Center chairman, but the talented cast and Guster refused to be silenced. This unforgettable night of music and theater celebrated diversity, inclusion, and the unbreakable spirit of the LGBTQ+ community, with popular keywords like 'LGBTQ+ rights' and 'artistic freedom' taking center stage. The event was a testament to the power of art to bring people together and challenge social injustices.
