Written by Paula Vogel, Score and Original Music by Lisa Gutkin and Aaron Halva
Directed by Sasha Olinick
Performances will be held in the Theatre Arts Arena on the Montgomery College Rockville campus.
In 1906 a young, up and coming Jewish/Polish writer, Sholem Asch, penned "God of Vengeance”, a play attacking religious hypocrisy and lovingly depicting a romantic relationship between two women. The play quickly became a hit as it toured throughout Europe and was translated from its original Yiddish into several different languages. But in America, when an English translation opened on Broadway in 1923, the play was quickly shut down and the cast, director and producer were jailed and prosecuted for violating obscenity laws. Indecent, by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paula Vogel, charts the history of this incendiary drama and the path of the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it.
INDECENT is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Dramatists Play Service.
Indecent is recommended for mature audiences and teenagers aged 13 and older due to adult themes and historical prejudice.
