Chappell Roan Canceled Two Major Shows Due to ‘Overwhelming’ Pressure. It Didn’t Have to Be That Way (Guest Column)

However, as Chappell Roan’s example and many others show, there are big gaps in care and provision that need to be addressed if the industry wants to prevent last-minute cancellations and move towards a more sustainable (not to mention ethical) future.
