SPOILER ALERT! These content warnings contain details that may give away key plot points in the play.

Rumors

While Rumors is an outrageous farce, the play contains aspects that may not be suitable for all audiences. Amidst the comedic chaos, characters frequently swear and curse, drink alcohol, and speculate on a possible suicide attempt and various extramarital affairs.

Doubt: A Parable

Doubt contains conversations about abuse, particularly speculation of sexual abuse between a religious leader and a student, as well as parental physical abuse. These acts are discussed, though not depicted. Underage drinking is also mentioned.
