The Dallas Morning News is reporting that longtime Dallas Summer Musicals President/Managing Director Michael Jenkins “has been fired.”
In the meantime, David Hyslop has been named to serve as interim managing director until a permanent replacement is found.
This isn’t David’s first “interim position” within the Dallas musical world. It was back in 2011 that he served as Dallas Symphony Orchestra president following Bill Lively‘s brief tenure as DSO president.
It sounds like it wasn’t a very friendly parting of the ways between Michael and the DSM board.
To quote the immortal Bette Davis, seat belts had better be fastened.
