The Icarus theater troupe in England flew too close to the sun when they decided to go full woke and turn Romeo & Juliet into a "non-binary" romance story where they retell the classic story of a gender non-conforming person falling in love with a gender-fluid young person.

However, since it's the year 2022 these wacky lefties decided to add a new twist to the story.

Since World War 2 is THE ONLY part of history ANYONE on the Left is even somewhat familiar with, they decided it would be cool to make Romeo a Nazi and Juliet a jew.

And this show somehow failed?

From The Telegraph:

A production of Romeo and Juliet for non-binary performers, with Juliet reimagined as a persecuted Jew and Romeo as a member of the Hitler Youth, has become embroiled in a row over its failure to include Jewish people in a casting call...

The call did not include any request for Jewish performers to join the cast of the production, set in the Third Reich, and the company has publicly apologised for the omission.

They didn't get into controversy because they decided to butcher Shakespeare by androgynizing a classic. They didn't get in trouble for making the protagonist in the play a LITERAL NAZI!

No, the problem was that they wanted non-Jewish people to play Jews.

In a related note, every community theater production of Fiddler on the Roof is now canceled.

In summary, a non-binary Romeo and Juliet production set in Nazi Germany was canceled because they failed to cast any Jewish actors.

The Twitterati is, of course, mad about the Nazi thing. That's obviously so stupid.

But making Romeo and Juliet NON-BINARY actually destroys the entire story.

Shakespeare has to be spinning in his grave.

I can actually think of about a million other reasons to cancel this show, but that one is as good as any I guess. As long as the show DOESN'T go on.
