Re: Musicals that are or aren't appropriate for high schools
Cabaret was the second show I ever did, at my former HS (they lost someone like a week before curtain and called me, a couple years after graduating, having done a total of one show [in the chorus] in desperation to fill in). I'm not intimately familiar with all aspects of the show, as that production was the only one I've seen or been involved with, but I have to wonder what, other than the traditional toplessness of the Kit Kat dancers, which is, of course, not manditory, is inappropriate? I think it treats the subject of the growing Nazism and the various reactions to it very well.
