The school board has officially approved our production of Almost, Maine. I am deeply thankful for the 2,505 people who recognized the importance of our artistic expression. We will now turn our full attention to rehearsals to ensure this play honors the trust you placed in us.

The momentum surrounding our petition shows how deeply this community values artistic expression. If you have not yet reached out to a neighbor or friend to explain why this play carries such significance, please take a moment to do so now. Reaching our next goal will demonstrate the true scale of the support for these students.

My daughter's school in Durham, NC is doing the play this weekend and they got a standing ovation! It's a great play. with a great message!
It doesn't matter if there is a gay couple. Love is love, and I say, let the students put on the play!
Open minds, open hearts. Understanding the human condition is what the theatre does best.
My children's high school performed this adorable play a few year ago and it went over well with everyone. The content is appropriate for audiences of all ages. It celebrates love in many forms but is not sexually explicit.
MHS needs to move forward, not backward. This is old school censorship. Leave your religious beliefs at the door MHS staff.
js let two man kiss bruh
Beautiful and nuanced play
