    This item was brought to my attention by a colleague in Pittsburgh. I'm somewhat perplexed by the entire discussion. Forgive me for being direct, but what do the rantings from a satirical web site (which no sane person would use for dissemination of truth) and the private activities of individuals at some convention have to do with a theatrical review? From my viewpoint, there is something that inspired a group of playwrights to create a new musical and they did so under their own research and information. It's theater, not necessarily a reflection of any group's opinion. The storyline to me seems interesting. If anything, not that makes one bit of difference, but it seems that all of the unsubstantiated accusations by several people on this forum, is giving a bit of credulity to the basic premise that the writers have used. Good theater can have reflections in life. If there is a genuine group that is actively mocking individuals for their interests, then I'd be interested in seeing how this was interpreted by someone not involved on either side (and how entertaining the production is.) I'm now actually quite intrigued by this production.
