JEM has posted a new announcement on the Neighborhood Theatre Web site They're going to stay!
January 31, 2010Due to the overwhelming support from the Charlotte music community, JEM Entertainment is happy to announce that we have decided to continue operation of The Neighborhood Theatre with no plans to cease operations or to close the venue as previously stated.
Since the original announcement twenty-one days ago, we have had an outpouring from the community offering assistance and ideas on how we could save the Neighborhood Theatre. After much thought and careful consideration, JEM is on board to do just that. This change in direction has been made possible by all of you, our supporters, and your positive energy.
All current management and staff will stay in place continuing to bring you the same level of quality music as we have done for the past 6 years. Due to the desire from the community to help, we would like to offer you a few ways to show your direct support. Please stay tuned as we will be announcing these options in the coming days. It's time to get back to it Charlotte!!
From the bottom of all of our hearts we say THANK YOU.
