If I know anything about musical theatre people it’s that their lives revolve

Imagine what would happen if that musical were about Jews or Muslims

Heaven forbid they do Fiddler on the Roof or Joseph and His Amazing Technicolor

Do those plays openly mock, misrepresent, and belittle Judaism?

Let's win but let's also not overreact. I like the Church's original response

Based on the context you're correct. My concern is that as a Church

"No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing". It's God's work and it will work out whether we respond or not.

We know the final result but that doesn't absolve us of our responsibility

We have a responsibility to be disciples of Christ. I don't think it does anything to fight against the musical. We of

Let’s say it this way: in America there are similar numbers of Jews and LDS people

Interesting thoughts. It has me posing a couple questions or maybe more lines of thinking

^This. Plus the Dr Phillips Center is not UCF’s performing arts center.

If it is arbitrary, geesh — kinda shocking. I thought that show was basically dead. Silly me.

I’m skeptical those planning Broadway shows know UCF has a football team at all

More than likely true, which is ironic because that is the premise of the play

Pretorian

It is certainly true. These traveling shows are scheduled some times years in advance. UCF isn’t targeting us lolol

During the CFP?! No way that's a coincidence.
