A theater in Frankfurt, West Germany, decided to postpone until Nov. 13 a play by Rainer Werner Fassbinder that Jewish groups denounced as anti-Semitic. Director Guenther Ruehle said an attempt to stage the play today was canceled for fear that demonstrations could become violent. Members of Frankfurt’s Jewish community stormed the stage last Thursday and prevented what would have been the premiere of “Rubbish, the City and Death.”
