"The musical numbers themselves are priceless – bold, raunchy and packed with sex appeal," Williamson had told the newspaper's entertainment writer, Julie Drake. Yes, but high school girls are not sex objects.

Is it accurate in the movie? Are they playing every detail of the movie? I do believe the movie did have them dressing like that. I did not see it but you could tell from the commercials. Nobody complained about the movie and it won awards so maybe this is accurate.

I remember when they had a Caberet number in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. (they usually have bits of current musicals, one of the most enjoyable parts for me).
They chose one of the nastiest parts, with revealing and sexual costumes. It was so inappropriate. My lib brother told me to get into the 21st century, but I couldn't believe my eyes.

Their parents must know and have given their approval. I wonder if some of the girls' fathers might be embarressed when they see their daughters onstage dressed in less and performing "differently" than they might've expected. ;-)

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL PING! The parents themselves probably approve. But, here's a ping, anyway.
This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles.

"The main word here is appropriate. … I do not feel that the wardrobe is appropriate for high school. I feel that the content of the play is adult in nature and not appropriate for high school students," Winn said. At what age is raunchy acceptable? Why? When does one mean raunchy when using the word adult, not be confused with mature? A prerequisite to performing in these plays to understand inclusion should be to adhere to a political philosophy held by rabid feminists. Same with Playboy Bunnies.

Just be glad that they didn't have a bunch of high school boys dressed up in "attired in bras, teddies, foundation garments, garter belts and little else."
*shudder*

An incredibly bad idea probably launched by someone who never read the book and doesn't understand the musical.

It would appear that they are, at least so far as this particular government high school is concerned.
