Well. Folks. SummerWorks has just recently gotten word of a pretty shocking bit of news. Apparently, one of our productions is scheduled to be … picketed. That would be “The Pastor Phelps Project” at The Cameron House.
Information from the website, godhatesfags.com, is below.

NEWS RELEASE
WBC will picket The Pastor Phelps Project
– at 7 p. m. t o 8 p. m. – Thursday, August 7
– at the Cameron House,
408 Queen St. W., Toronto, Canada.
In religious protest and warning: “Be not
deceived; God is not mocked” Gal. 6:7.
God Hates Fags! & Fag-Enablers. Ergo,
God hates The Pastor Phelps Project , and
all those having anything to do with it .
The Pastor Phelps Project is a tacky bit of filthy
sodomite propaganda, with no literary merit
and zero redeeming social value, masquerading
as legitimate theater . It is of the fags, by the
fags , and for the fags – designed only to mock
the word of God and the servants of God. ” He
that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord
shall have them in derision. ” Psa. 2:4.
God Hates Canada -Land of the Sodomites.

I’m not quite sure WHAT to say/think about this. We’ve done some looking around, and it seems to be legitimate. This group is pretty notorious for these pickets. I’ve not heard of this happening in Canada.
Here is the link to their press release:

Wow. Just wow.
…and that’s not even the half of it! If you check the picket schedule on their vile website, they manage to blame the Winnipeg bus murder on our show.
I suppose “wow” really is the only appropriate response…
“Its what you talk about, not how you talk about it.”.

I hope the protest gives them big box office!!! then we can all go to a fucking fantastic sodomite party where the drinks are free.What is the the problem? if it is for the fags by the fags?Are the baptists upset that the fags are not writng plays for the the baptists.
I send love to all the fags and to all the baptists ,I just hope sombody holds a big mirror up while the protest is going on.maybye seeing yourself filled with such hate will be enough to move your soul to a better place.

I’m sure I ment to spell things better.

Insane!
Anyone for infiltrating their picket? “Even crazy people can carry signs!”
They should not be allowed in Canada. Period. This is why we have borders.
ugh. ew. yech.
Seriously, someone might want to think about having police nearby. These people sound crazy.
I heart Sodomites!!
