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.
