So interesting.
I remember reading (perhaps even hereon) that this actress had already played a supporting role in this musical, so it might’ve been thought that her claim of ignorance of Celie’s sexual romance with another woman was false or a legal ploy.
Oh well. It sounds like the lawyers are up and at it.
I personally think she should be permitted to quit (and perhaps pay damages). One need not play a woman-who-loves-women or even condone it to be a valued artist. But, still, if you sign a contract, well, if you sign a contract there are consequences for breaking it.
Usually those consequences are financial.
But not social ostracism nor cancelling, I would hope. |
