'Chronicle' Should Warn When There Is Adult Content
RECEIVED Sun., Sept. 13, 2009
Dear Editor,
Re: “The Dragonfly Queen” [Arts, Aug. 28]: I was not familiar with the prior play, but after reading the Chronicle review and Vortex synopsis, I decided to take several seventh-grade theatre students to see this play. The information made this play seem like an off-beat Star Wars type of fantasy. I was shocked to find the content replete with partial nudity and lesbian sexual innuendo, and we soon left the theatre. I saw no warnings of this content anywhere and am extremely disappointed that the Chronicle and the Vortex made no mention of the adult/lesbian nature of this production.
