I'm pretty sure it's quite hubristic to presume to know what Jesus would do about this - if anything. Not my pasture, not my bull dung. Carry on.

This is what Jesus said and did about money changing and the sale of items for which the people of God coming to had a legitimate need to fulfill their religious obligations: John 2:

[13] And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
[14] And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
[15] And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
[16] And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

[17] And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

This sounds like a nice show but does it really need to be hosted by a church?

The Prestonwood choir and Orchestra is as good as or better than most big city secular orchestras. If I wanted to see a show like this put on by a professional choir and orchestra, the starting tickets would be in the range of $200 each and the good seats would be $1000 each.

This event gives hundreds of elementary through high school kids an opportunity to be a part of this event and it keeps them away from their phones for many dozens of hours while they prep for this event.

The ticket prices probably won’t recoup the cost. The kids who participate in this event have a lifetime memory of being part of this event.

Surely that should be worth you investing $71 to witness that.
