LA CANADA FLINTRIDGE, Calif. - A high school production doesn't debut until June, but it's already getting some bad reviews.


Students at La Canada High School plan to stage a production of the satirical comedy, "Bat Boy: The Musical."

The play is about a half-human, half-bat creature who faces alienation and bigotry. The off-Broadway production touched on several dark themes, including incest, rape, bestiality and murder.

. . . .blah blah blah CENSORSHIP . . . .

Principal Michael Leininger said he told the 200 people at a recent board meeting that the play had already been toned down.

"Obviously, you are not going to have a rape scene in the middle of a high school play," he said.

Maybe they can do Naked Boys Singing next year.

Or maybe we can collaborate and write "Michael Jackson -- the Musical!"

I'm sure beastiality will go over really well with the audience too :slap:

I'd assume the beastality would stem from the fact that he IS a bat boy, half bat, half human...

Maybe they can do Naked Boys Singing next year.

Would that be Naked Boys Singing in the "art" sense, or just the "pedo" type?

It's a show that's playing off broadway.

Yes, but IMHO not appropriate for a HS production.

I was being sarcastic.
