Godspell and Daughter
Advertisements [?]
My 14 year old daughter just got a call back for her High School Play which this year is Godspell. Granted, I have never seen the play and will be on my way to the video store today to rent the movie. I know it was a hit on Broadway. I know I can't shield her from everything religious (nor would I want to). But why do I have a little gnawing feeling in the pit of my stomach about this play being done in a Public High School. SO says I'm over reacting a bit and I'm open to that possibility as I do tend to be excessively strident about religion in the schools. My community does tend to be liberal but we do have our share of hard core fundies.

What do you think about plays like Godspell and Jesus Christ Superstar in the schools.

I've already decided to swallow any weird feelings I have about this and suck it up so as not to suck any joy from my daughter about maybe being involved in the play.

Tell me I'm over reacting .....
