Your theater season should be: Mame, Corpus Christi and Burning (by Thomas Bradshaw).

All have their critics (Mame for reasons mentioned here, Corpus Christi as Catholics found it highly offensive when it was shown at Manhattan Theater Club, and Burning as it contained extended full nudity and multiple graphic simulated sex scenes at The New Group/Acorn Theater).

You should call your theater season "Freedom of speech". When we start to censor, our right to show any of these 3 shows can be taken away. Censorship is never the answer, but education, dialogue and free speech should be instead.
