ST. LOU FRINGE - "BARE" GETS TRIPPY

Times change. They always do, including in schools and on the stage. Two more scenes from the musical Bare. The first was a dance party that I assume was not held under the auspices of the school. (The Jesuits and the Archdiocese of New York would never have tolerated such things when I was young). Boys dancing with boys! Girls dancing with girls! Occasionally girls dancing with boys! 

The second photo represents a dream one of the main characters had. It's the young man in the foreground in yesterday's post. He is conflicted by his desires and guilt. One of the nuns from the school appears as the Virgin Mary to comfort him and guide his decisions. She has two backup singer-dancer angels. The crowd went wild.
