Reply to comment by MajSigmaE in Lebanon County school district won’t allow Addams Family on stage, saying it promotes bad values by WITFnews

Fun fact. This high school also recently performed Grease.

The board president actually said this at the meeting: “I don’t think there is a play with a worse theme than Grease and we performed it in an excellent way,” Naum said. “Mrs. (Brooke) Bomberger did a fantastic job of modifying it to what we believe is community standards.”

I would love to hear how they handled the pregnancy scare and the implied sexual assault.

There’s a Grease School Edition, which is what our high school recently put on, which cuts out quite a bit if the innuendo and completely cuts out the pregnancy scare, although there are allusions to it throughout.

My HS did that one, it is far less impactful and I feel it takes away from the author's intent, but I am sure he is laughing all the way to the bank.
