Fine but then this is a choice and the theatre should take responsibility, and that might mean closing down... Honestly that sounds like an elitist, a bit snobbish, attitude ("we won't lower ourselves to making popular shows" sort of thing) Here in the UK venues have very popular pantomine shows ("pantos") for children/families at Xmas. They are not serious and often slapstick comedy but they sell tickets and fill the room.
