The day the music died.

I'll never forget the anger I felt when my high school friends were censored in their performance of "Working". My friend's monologue, in which his character fantasizes about strangling his coworkers (who hasn't??) had whole sentences cut down to grunts and hand gestures. It was a short while past Columbine and any concept of violence was verboten.

That whole bit must have been cut out of our version (what replaced Into The Woods when the Northridge Earthquake sidelined our first read-thru. Stupid Working). Then again, I only really remember the housewife (my part) the waitress (part I auditioned for), the person whining about Guantanamera as elevator music, and I think a trucker?
