After a security breach lead to early ticket selling of JK Rowling‘s October 16 event for THE CASUAL VACANCY, Lincoln Center announced that all early ticket sales would be honored and the venue would be moved from Jazz at Lincoln Center to the David Koch Theater. “Although neither Little, Brown and Company nor J.K. Rowling are responsible for this situation they were keen to make sure that no person who legitimately bought a ticket was left disappointed, are delighted this matter has been resolved in this way and apologize for any confusion that may have been caused in the meantime. Jazz at Lincoln Center apologizes too for any inconvenience and looks forward to welcoming everyone to the David H. Koch Theater on October 16.” The event remains sold out.
