Barrier to a Black Romeo in La Habra

If controversy of any kind repels La Habra theatergoers, maybe “West Side Story,” the next production, might be a little too much with its Puerto Rican Latinos. I hope the Depot Playhouse board will realize racism and bigotry are as destructive to community values as illegal drugs, domestic violence or political corruption.

Rehearsals are under way for “Romeo and Juliet” with two white actors alternating as Romeo.
