Loved the shows, will be going again this year.

Loved the shows, will be going again this year.

Three stars because of their use of a transphobic slur in the middle of a children's play (Shrek the musical) last year. After the outrage over the use if the slur at different theatres across the country (and in Canada) the year prior, it was removed by many troupes from the play.

I'm not sure why the Bigfork Summer Playhouse left it in. It was like getting slapped across the face when I least expected it last year when they proudly dropped the slur in a room full of children! Completely ruined the rest of the show for me.

If they can get through all of their performances this year without throwing in random bigotry I'll consider upping my rating. The fact that I'm willing to even give them another chance is a testament to how fun their shows really are.
