A. Equus would leave the director open to prosecution, since the play contains a scene where character Alan Strang (who is meant to be 17 years old in the play) has a nude encounter on stage with a 20-year old woman.

B. Spring Awakening (which was written in 1891) would also be classified as ‘’porn- ography”’ under Bill C-54, since it portrays the sexual awakening of a group of teenagers.

very unusual staging of the

play!)
