Producers have voiced grave concern over the proposed steep hike in rates for the rental of the National Cultural Centre and one has accused Minister of Culture Charles Ramson Jr of micromanaging the sector and not recognising the importance of creatives.
Ramson Jr has come in for strong criticism from the creative sector after reports of a more than 600% hike in some rental fees for the Cultural Centre – Guyana’s premier theatre location.
Earlier this week, Signature Production Company which produces the popular “Nothing to Laugh About” production, posted a section of a letter quoting the recommended increases to access the 1975-seats National Cultural Centre. The letter informed that the increases are “recommended”.
