Many schools are set up in a way where academics is put on a pedestal, a play gives someone who isn’t a 100 student a chance to make a name for herself. I remember a certain teacher telling us that one year the play director gave someone a pretty big part and that completely changed the girl for the rest of high school. There is a tremendous amount of talent in the frum community that would go to waste if there was no kosher entertainment. Think of how many people have a parnassa from this. And how many schools raise money from productions they wouldn’t be able to raise otherwise.
