>A small-town theater in Maine may be forced to cancel the production of one of its plays next week because the cast is too white. The Grand Theater in Ellsworth, Maine has made a last-minute appeal for minority actors to save its production of Big River, an adaption of Mark Twain novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The population of Ellsworth, Maine is 93 percent white, and the play has faced issues as it has only been able to fill the role of Jim, a runaway slave, ahead of the production. This has left the smaller roles of Alice and her daughter, who are also slaves, still to be filled by black actors, The Grand's executive director Nick Turner said. Turner had originally planned to get around casting quotas by adapting the script so Alice and her daughter wouldn't appear on stage and are only referred to in the third person by other characters.

Wait! Is this a law in Maine or is it virtue signaling by the owner of the theater?

i rank the white cuckoldry of maine second to whatever is going on in minnesota.
all of these “theater” operations are only kept alive by heavy government subsidies and do-goody estate donations from the old people who yearn for days of yore. the revenue generated by a theater in ellsworth maine is no more than 3% of the funding needed to keep the lights on and the roof from caving in.
