it is, of course, cancelled. But even after the board wanted to cancel it took weeks to negotiate the ability to cancel without being killed financially. This was all back in April. The official announcement of the postponement to next year was mid April. Honestly, I don't know that we will be able to have it even in July 2021 since choruses can't rehearse without at the very least a stringent testing regime and we aren't seeing any hope of that until at least 20 January 2021 at noon.
