Ashley Ahn reports:
With the resignation, it is the second time in four months that the center will be without its top official who oversees the programming of over 2,000 performances across nine stages every year. [emphasis added]
Mr. Couch’s predecessor, Jeffrey Finn, who was also the vice president and executive producer of theater, stepped down in September after nearly a decade programming the center’s touring Broadway shows and locally produced musicals.
This latest resignation comes amid deepening turmoil at the center, several weeks after the Washington National Opera said it would move its performances out of the venue and one day after the renowned composer Philip Glass said he did not want his symphony honoring Abraham Lincoln to be performed by the National Symphony Orchestra at the center this June.
