I WRITE to object in the strongest terms at the inclusion of ‘Puppetry of the Penis’ in Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre’s programme for March 26, a ‘show’ involving a male duo who twist and contort their genitalia into a variety of absurd formations for the amusement of a largely female audience.
What is particularly reprehensible is the generous subsidy – courtesy of the local taxpayer, of course – Bournemouth Borough council regularly gives the theatre, a source of funding requiring urgent review in light of its decision to feature this utterly vulgar, distasteful and offensive production.
