Full Text
The censorship of stage matters which was at one time very rigid in Germany was abandoned during the war and the result was that efforts were at once made to give questionable performances. The theater-going public has resented this and have shown their displeasure by stopping the shows in several parts of the country. In some cases actors and actresses were seriously injured by the demonstrations which took place. There is a general demand for the return of the old-time censorship when only the best plays were sanctioned.
