Though most of the money was put up by the Kennedy Center ANTA the American National Theater and Academy still had substantial funding involved. He explains that "From the beginning we ran into a beehive of problems not the least of which was Makarova's shocking injury; and with it all we never really sat down and thought very clearly about the relation of ANTA and the Kennedy Canter." To appease her Stevens hopes to have her attend the first preview with him and offer her opinion.
