It’s “Springtime for Hitler” over at Tappan Zee High School in Orangetown — but winter for the swastika.

The students are putting on Mel Brooks’ madcap satire “The Producers” — without the Nazi symbol. Why? People were offended, of course.

Huh? The offensiveness is much of the joke. The play’s Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom stage a musical so atrocious, it’ll close fast, letting them pocket the cash from selling investors 10,000 percent of the show.

“There is no context in a public high school where a swastika is appropriate,” South Orangetown Superintendent Bob Pritchard told CBS2’s Tony Aiello. “I considered it to be an obscenity like any obscenity.”

What if the kids want to put on, say, “The Sound of Music”? Or stage “Schindler’s List”?

Four parents complained, reports B.J. Greco, who handles media for the school district. “If you come in out of context, you can misinterpret,” he explains.

Sorry: You don’t censor a work of art because a few people don’t get it. If you must, post one of those silly “trigger warnings.”

“The swastika is an icon,” Greco says. “It causes different feelings in different people.”

Sorry, the “icon” is intrinsically part of the parody — part of the whole absurdist tale.

In the show, Bialystock & Bloom wind up in prison after “Springtime for Hitler” wins rave reviews as comedy. We won’t wish prison on Orangetown’s officials — but we hope the publicity at least gives the kids a smash hit.
