Johnstown is a nine iron from Shanksville.

Until conservatives start educating themselves in theatre, opera, film and ballet, we are going to have these stupidly stupid actions. How ridiculous.

“One for ‘our’ side?”

I’m sure that after the ACLU hears about it, they will sue to force the school to do Kismet.

Why was some POS like “Kismet” picked in the 1st place? To prove their tolerance and diversity BS for Muslims, that’s why. A%%holes! They couldn’t go with “West Side Story”? “Willie Wonka”? “Alice in Wonderland”? “Fiddler on the Roof”? “Guys and Dolls”?

I grew up listening to the soundtrack:

...and it's just a fine musical.

Kismet is a musical with lyrics and musical adaptation (as well as some original music) by Robert Wright and George Forrest, adapted from the music of Alexander Borodin, and a book by Charles Lederer and Luther Davis, based on Kismet, the 1911 play by Edward Knoblock.[1][2] The story concerns a wily poet who talks his way out of trouble several times; meanwhile, his beautiful daughter meets and falls in love with the young Caliph.

The musical was first produced on Broadway in 1953 and won the Tony Award for best musical in 1954. It was also successful in London's West End and has been given several revivals. A 1955 film version was released by MGM.

The Broadway show ran when the Dodgers were still in Brooklyn.

Being Muslim is inappropriate.

I, too, grew up listening to the soundtrack. Mom had it playing along with "Sound of Music" and a couple Montovani records, among others, as backround music during the day.

Nobody who was born within 5000 miles of Baghdad had anything to do with "Kismet".

What's next? Ban all the Sinbad movies from playing in West-Central Pennsylvania?Or the Popeye cartoon where Bluto played Ali Baba - a Popeye classic on Youtube.

They banned Kismet??

That's certainly not one for "our side!"

It's a wonderful musical.

Wow. Bad idea.
