If we're aiming at 1912 fidelity, how far do you insist it should "accurately reflect the period"? Is even having non-white actors a step too far?
Since you're using the word "actors," I'll bite:
Did you mean that in 1912, black actors would not have been cast as part of a "regular" ensemble in a musical? Or did you mean that in 2022 we still cannot accept that idea that BIPOC actors can play anything but BIPOC roles? |
