To the Waterbury Board of Education

American Theatre Wing: "To the members of the Waterbury Board of Education:
Stephen Sondheim, a singular voice in the American theatre, famously wrote the lyric, “Art isn’t easy.” I am reminded of this as I read of the current debate within the Waterbury school system over the Arts Magnet School’s proposed production of Joe Turner’s Come and Gone by August Wilson, another singular voice in theatre.

This is a powerful and very well worded letter. The message is important, and I am glad that people are doing something about this censorship. This letter is very polite, but also to the point and honest. Hopefully these efforts will make a difference.
