NEW YORK -- Filmmaker Michael Moore, who is making his Broadway debut this summer in a solo show, says he will donate $10,000 to New York City's Shakespeare in the Park after it lost funding from sponsors due to its controversial "Julius Caesar" production.
Moore says he's donating the money -- his advance pay for the show "The Terms of My Surrender" -- to the Public Theater program after corporate sponsors Bank of America and Delta pulled their sponsorship of "Julius Caesar."
