  Proctor’s Theatre CEO Philip Morris has been outspoken in his concern a casino would hurt Proctors and other entertainment venues in the Capital Region.

He’s a founding member of Upstate Theater Coalition for a Fair Game, a group that pushed for a requirement that casino operators have agreements with venues to safeguard them when booking popular touring acts.

He joins us this morning to discuss what works and what doesn’t when it come to casinos and local entertainment venues.
