Should Reverend Billy Play Nice At The Spiegeltent?

Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping have a run of shows at the Spiegeltent, located in the South Street Seaport. Billy and the Choir have performed two shows and have been targeting Victoria's Secret, a tennant of the Seaport Mall next door to the venue. The Church has been banned from the mall without ever having set foot inside, and now the producers of the Spiegeltent have expressed they don't want the Church to make any political speech outdoors, even on the grounds of the Spiegeltent site.

So should the Church just perform in the tent and save the demonstrations for elsewhere, or should the producers have known this would happen when they invited them down?
