The musical performances scheduled to take place at Sunday night’s premiere of Lilith Fair: Building a Mystery have been canceled as Disney — parent company of the doc’s distributor, ABC News Studios — continues to deal with the fallout from last week’s suspension of Jimmy Kimmel.
“While the previously scheduled musical performances will not take place, we invite you to stay for a reception following the screening to celebrate the documentary ,” organizers said in a statement Sunday afternoon.
At the premiere, Lilith Fair co-founder Sarah McLachlan , who also appears in the documentary, introduced the film ahead of the screening. She announced that the performances were canceled in a move of solidarity to support free speech.
