Conservative filmmaker alleges play based on Strzok-Page dropped by 'politically biased' theater

Conservative filmmaker and writer Phelim McAleer said Monday that his new play on former FBI agent Peter Strzok and former FBI lawyer Lisa Page was dropped from a Washington, D.C., theater because the entertainment industry is politically biased.

"They're so busy giving themselves awards for bravery that they don't realize they're a bunch of cowards," McAleer told Hill.TV's Buck Sexton and Jamal Simmons on "Rising."

"This is the big thing about Hollywood and the theater world. They think they're so brave. They're not. They just do things that friends at dinner parties really like," he said. "They're afraid of controversy. They're afraid of the truth. They're politically biased actually too, let's be clear."

"The theater world is the most left of the entertainment industry," he added. "They do not want this kind of theater in their sacred ground."

The play is based on text messages between Strzok and Page that were critical of President Trump. The two now-former FBI employees had an affair before Strzok was removed from special counsel Robert Mueller's team.

Awwww. You mean the Koch bros. won't finance it for you?

1. Awww, poor wannabe

Nobody will put on your steaming pile of show? You should rent a theater and produce it yourself with your own money! That'd show those snooty elitists what real theater is, and the money would just roll in for your controversial play that no doubt rips the cover off of insider Washington and the Deep State.

Or you'd drop a big chunk of change. Say, Phelim, have you seen "The Producers"?

2. I hope someone helps them sue if they do.

3. It's so unfair

I wrote a play about how Trump is the most brilliant and handsome Prezdint ever and they are refusing to give me the Pulitzer Prize or put my play on Broadway just because I had MAGA tattooed actress my forehead.
Good news is that FOX is very interested in having me host a news show.

4. Why would anyone think this was such an entertaining topic that they would

pay hard money to hear the same old, overworked news that's freely available on the internet? Seriously, on top of the ticket price, who wants to drive downtown, pay outrageous parking fees and sit in a stuffy theater listening to angst ridden conservatives wailing about being victims of some imaginary global conspiracy, and gnashing their teeth about being rejected and unloved.

5. It sounds like a very "Politically Biased" play to use the morans' terminology.
