LIBERTY HALI accessibility info 644 Mass. 749-1912 (785) 749-1972 THE ILLUSIONIST (R) 4:50 7:00 9:05 CEDAR RAPIDS (R) 5:00 7:10 9:15 students $ 6.00! Short answer: an extraordinary amount of work. Settling the strike is only the first mountain in a series of treacherous peaks that the financially crippled DSO has to scale on its way to a viable future. With $54 million in real estate debt, $9 million in projected deficits in the next three years, a rapidly shrinking endowment, subscription numbers as bloody as the end of a slasher movie and relationships between musicians and management as hostile as "The War of the Roses," the DSO's margin for error remains razor thin. At the heart of the strike was a dispute over the size of pay cuts aimed at reversing the DSO's multimillion-dollar annual deficits that have led to losses of more than $19 million since 2008. Battered by Michigan's anemic economy and the recession, the DSO's fund-raising and ticket sales have struggled to keep pace with rising costs. Paul Hogle, executive vice president. "We have to climb them all well at the same time." The strike has taken an enormous toll. The DSO has lost millions in ticket income. The strike also has cost each musician at least $55,000 in salary. "The peaks are not linear," said "We're dying to get back to Orchestra Hall and begin the long process of healing," said bassist Rick Robinson.
