(TODD STARNES) – A production of "Cinderella" was canceled in Minnesota because the cast was 98% white.

The artistic director explained the decision as to why the Chanhassen Dinner Theater decided to drop the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic. "It was 98 percent white. That doesn't work with what we're saying we're going to do," Michael Brindisi told Twin Cities Pioneer Press.

Instead, they will be doing "Footloose" next. The decision was a result of its "ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion," according to the theater's "DEI/Anti-Racism" update.

An FBI agent in Washington has submitted an affidavit in a criminal case against several people who allegedly were involved in the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. It undermines House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's claim that President Trump's speech to supporters that day was an "incitement of insurrection."
