I thought you would have called me back by now. Your sister’s teacher recently traveled to Chicago to see his stepson perform the part of “Edward” in an adaptation based on King Lear.
He had told parents, “Please be warned that this play has violence, nudity, and sex.” However, he did not mention that in one of his scenes he performs in the nude. His mother was quite shocked to see her son’s “birthday suit” on stage covered in nothing but some muck. I think I would have passed out if one of you girls had done that.
Generally speaking, I like to encourage the expanding one’s cultural horizons, and they did say that overall, the production was good. However, I am not recommending you see it.
Love, Mom


















And which theatre exactly is this production being put on?

I’m a little confused what she thought nudity meant.

I’m sure she knew what nudity meant, just not that her son would be one of the ones nude, as it says he didn’t mention that part.
