Ah libbies, bless their misguided little hearts.
More like bless the knuckle-draggers who won't allow high school kids to do a Shakespeare play.
I don't think this has anything to do with "liberalism." This is Missouri, how do you know she isn't a Baptist Sunday School teacher as well?
I spent 25 years in the theatre. I was an actor, director, playwright, and producer. I ran one of the only naturally conservative touring companies in the Northeast.
Your comment disparages the great talent which evolves from young eager minds. Theatre is entertainment...it is also a process by which young people mature and find their way. Not all find themselves on our side of the fence...but more than you can attribute do.
Sorry for the bad grammar....I'm aggravated by this remark.
IMHO, it's the Christian Conservatives in this story who are acting like a bunch of Nazis. "Grease"?! Puleeze! Oooh - smoking, drinking and kissing! How terrible. And those darn Salem Witch trials.

Excuse me...but they're mad a high school put on the play GREASE? Give me a break...My high school class went to see the play on Broadway.. And The Crucible? You know how many High Schools do that play? This is just absurd.
