February 27th, 2005 by Monitor

From The Independent on Sunday.

UPDATE: According to the AP, via Yahoo news, the Broadway production of JS:TO will go ahead after all.

“While the widely covered but small-scale religious protests in the UK surrounding `Jerry Springer — The Opera’ have not been helpful in the completion of raising the capital for the Broadway production, they have by no means brought an end to our New York plans,” John Barlow, the show’s New York spokesman, said Monday in a statement.
