A Pennsylvania elementary school canceled the fifth-graders performance of Charles Dickens’ classic tale, “A Christmas Carol,” an annual tradition for over 40 years, in part because two parents reportedly complained about the character of Tiny Tim saying, “God bless us, everyone.”
District spokeswoman Shannon Zimmerman acknowledged to WHTM that the complaints about Tiny Tim’s line prompted officials think twice about putting the play on, and somehow they decided that this year, the 15-20 hours of classroom time to prepare for the play were cause to jettison the production.
