Just read the weekly theatre column in the Denver Post and it had this little gem. I thought I'd share.
... a theatergoer recently left the Lake Dillon Theatre Company's "The Little Dog Laughed" at intermission — and called 911. The complaint: "The Lake Dillon Theatre has nudity on their stage, and they are out of control." The police threatened the caller with misuse of 911. "I only know this because a police officer came in to purchase tickets the next day and told us," said artistic director Christopher Alleman.

Posted: 5/30/10 at 10:53amI wonder, did they go full frontal or was it (as in the recent London production) rear view only?

Posted: 5/30/10 at 2:17pmThis business of everyone out there having their view of what "wholesome" is is just something that is nuts. From Chicago not allowing people to smoke on stage to this situation where a patron saying that an arrest should be made due to there being nudity on stage.

Posted: 5/30/10 at 2:25pmI didn't even know we were doing the show here. I didn't get a press release.

Douglas Carter Beane almost put a cease and desist on a production that didn't have nudity. The nudity is specified in the script because the character has just had sex and is leaving the bed. Without the nudity, Beane said in an interview regarding said production, the important plot point of the character having sex with the rent boy is not established.
I'll try to look for the interview.

Should be interesting to see what the reaction to their production of "Hair" this summer will be like. :-P
Cheers,

Great press for the production!
I did a production of "Pageant" years ago at a theatre that had little to no crossover space, so we would exit the backstage area and do our crosses in the alley. One night a woman was walking her dog with her kid and saw a handful of tall women in their underwear and called the cops. We got tons of free press.
