After changing its name from the Hudson Opera House to Henry Hudson Hall two weeks ago, the Hudson Opera House is changing its name again, this time to Hudson Hall at the historic Hudson Opera House. Gary Schiro, the Executive Director of the Hudson Opera House, released a statement March 23 saying, "I, together with the Board of Directors, my Co-Director Tambra Dillon and our staff, acknowledge the concern expressed by some that we would highlight a historical figure who may not reflect the spirit of inclusion and community we value. We want you to know that we have listened, with great respect, to those of you who have raised this issue, along with the tremendous affection shown for the Hudson Opera House. We are revising our name to “Hudson Hall” and our branding will retain a reference to our historic Hudson Opera House."
