Billie Joe Armstrong Calling Out School Board For Canceling 'American Idiot' High School Production

He's NOT holding back.

A group of very ambitious theater club members out of a Connecticut High School had decided on performing Green Day's musical "American Idiot" for this year's theater production. That is until “a small number of extremely vocal people” protested and the school's administration decided to to cancel the performance.

Billie Joe Armstrong, front man of Green Day and occasional star of the hit Broadway Musical "American Idiot," caught wind of the cancellation and had some very choice words for the schools administrators. Billie took to Instagram to address his displeasure with their decision.

dear Enfield high school board, #enfieldhighschoolmusical #highschoolidiot #enfieldidiot It has come to my attention that you cancelled your high school theater production of American Idiot. I realize the content of the Broadway production of AI is not quite "suitable" for a younger audience. However there is a high school rendition of the production and I believe that's the one Enfield was planning to perform which is suitable for most people. it would be a shame if these high schoolers were shut down over some of the content that may be challenging for some of the audience. but the bigger issue is censorship. this production tackles issues in a post 9/11 world and I believe the kids should be heard. and most of all be creative in telling a story about our history. I hope you reconsider and allow them to create an amazing night of theater! as they say on Broadway .. "the show must go on!" rage and love Billie Joe Armstrong ps. I love that your school is called "Raiders"

As off now it looks like the club will be performing "Little Shop of Horrors" instead.
