an exception...

Sometimes the performer is ahead of his time.
"Carmen" was a flop...
...but in time..people began to love it.

Picasso was ahead of his time...
That's happened in many fields of art.

occasionally a performer/artist is creating in a new world of 
ideas...which we, the "audience " may have to learn to grow into...
