A British school scrapped the performance of a musical about scientist Charles Darwin following complaints from parents over the play’s lyrics and its representation of Christian views. Students from the Hartford Manor Primary School in Cheshire were slated to perform the musical “Darwin Rocks!” next month but it was scrapped following complaints. Simon Kidwell, the head teacher of the school, told the BBC a few parents also believed a bishop in the play was “mocked” in a scene. He added that some parents felt the play’s “representation of Christian views on science wasn’t accurate,” the BBC reported. "You can't please all the people all the time, but having been in the school musical business for over 25 years, we can't ever recall having courted controversy before," he said.
