Parents Demand Cancellation of Drag Queen Christmas Show for Under-Fives
Angry parents have criticized a Christmas theatre performance aimed at very young children that features a drag queen named "Tania LeCoq." They describe the show as "extremely inappropriate" and have called on the theatre to cancel it.
The controversy focuses on whether drag queen performances are suitable entertainment for toddlers and pre-schoolers. Some parents feel strongly that such content does not align with what is appropriate for that age group.
Parental Concerns
- The show targets children under five years old.
- Parents argue that themes presented by the drag queen are not suitable for early childhood.
- The call to cancel the show highlights worries over exposing toddlers to adult concepts too soon.
Theatre's Position
The theatre initially promoted the event as festive entertainment designed to engage very young children with music and storytelling. However, facing backlash, it is under pressure to reconsider the show's place in the Christmas lineup.
"We believe this show is not a fit for our youngest audiences," some parents have stated, insisting the programme should be removed from the schedule immediately.
The debate reflects broader social discussions about children’s exposure to LGBTQ+ themed entertainment, especially in holiday programming.
