“The-Powers-That-Be” in Ireland seem to have forgotten that the PURPOSE of “Theatre” is to entertain and (perhaps) educate the AUDIENCE.

When will the NORMAL people of Ireland send those selfish, insensitive, ignorant MORONS back to Russia?

Why is it so important to normal people that abnormal people be able to flaunt their abnormalities? It’s acceptance by normal people that makes them put their insanity out for everyone to see.

I bet if these people lived in 1930s Germany they’d be putting the right clothes on and never think about wearing their “transgender” clothes again.

Maybe they are trying to be Shakespearean. After all, in athletics, fake girls are starting to win the girls’ championships.

If the man playing Juliet speaks in a falsetto voice, would that be considered a form of cultural appropriation?
