Has anyone heard of the Blithe Spirit play before, and if so what are your feelings about it?
Do you think the decision not to put on Blithe Spirit was the right one?
Some people claimed this was an argument over censorship, others claimed it to be a spiritual battle, what do you think this disagreement boils down to?
Is it fair for people who have never read or seen the play to violently object towards it's content? Is it ever appropriate to speak out against a work you haven't seen or read?
Do people who have read the play and speak out against it carry more weight than those who are against a play and haven't read it?
“Lehman’s complaint stated the content could hurt students’ views on monogamous relationships and encouraged exploration of witchcraft and the occult.” Is this a good reason to censor a work, and is there any good reason to censor a work from a school system?
““There isn’t any hope in that play. Why do it?” Hillary told the School Board as she sobbed. “We need hope. There are kids struggling with depression with drugs.”” does this student have a point and do you agree or disagree with her. Also do you think that a comedy is really meant to be a tale without any hope?
