Diana: The Musical

Some diversity in secondary characters. Diana visits an AIDS ward and the royals want her to wear a mask and not touch the patients. This is at a time when some of the patients who were gay weren't open about their sexuality, and her visit -- and her touching them -- was significant. She's portrayed as contributing to a lot of worthy causes that helped others, particularly the suffering or disadvantaged.

Diana sings of depression, bulimia, suicide attempts, and media assaults. A newspaper article cites five suicide attempts. She has a bandage on her wrist in one scene. She's said to suffer from postpartum depression after her sons are born. The accident that killed her is sung about.

Adults have affairs and are unfaithful to their spouses; they kiss and are seen in bed together. There's talk of "philandering," "wanking," Diana being a "virgin" at marriage, men being "cheaters" and "taking other friends." A scene with Diana's lover James Hewitt has multiple double entendres involving "riding lessons" resulting in a woman who will "dismount satisfied."

One use of "f--k" at the end of a song with variations on the word, like "eff you" and "feck you." "S--t," "bitch," "damn," "goddamn," "hell," "screw you," "God," "Christ," "bloody," "sod off," "stupid," "tart."

Adults drink alcohol at parties and events. Diana is given medication.
