<p>Interesting story in the Burlington (VT) Free Press last week. What are you going to do when the strongest actors that are auditioning are all the same sex? Especially at a Catholic LAC during Lent? Apparently the director wasn’t trying to do anything political, but cast a play based on the actors that were available.</p>

<p>Men used to play women without it being homosexual; that was just how things were done with plays.</p>
