    Phenomenal work by the team of Hopkins/Melillo. BAM was fabulous before their tenure and has only built and will continue to build the best most exciting theater/music/dance/art/film in this city.

    These two together enrich our lives no end. What a partnership, and what a wonderful community they’ve built – colleagues, audiences, performers, artists, patrons from Fort Greene to the four ends of the earth. Bravi and thank you for being you!
