[quote=Anonymous]No the OP, but a Blake parent.

Legally Blonde--The MS who attended during the day, for which the production was adapted, complained about the overt sexualizing of females. I was warned by multiple parents not to take my younger children and that it was much worse then the PG-13 movie.

Pippin-parent complaints about treatment and presentation of females in the production, student complaints about sexual costumes in school newspaper.

You Can't Take it with You--The play itself is not written to be overly sexual, but the director made parts of it inappropriate. Some parents complained.

Brighton Beach Memoirs--to quote the director's description, "parts discuss self-gratification" the director glorifies and distinguishes between masturbation between men and women. . .

That's just to name a few in the year's we've been at the school. I know several parents who have pulled their kids from his class.

Every family is different and has different boundaries. I find it amazing that people at the forum take constructive information and hurl insults.

Day at the Zoo is so sweet and it is so wonderful to have another director working with the students. It is like a dark cloud has been lifted.[/quote]
