The Dramatists Legal Defense Fund, in partnership with PEN America, presents Banned Together: A Censorship Cabaret.

Banned Together is a celebration of songs and scenes from shows that have been censored or challenged on America’s stages. The event was created to raise awareness around issues of censorship and free expression in the theatre. The performances will feature selections from Cabaret, Chicago, Rent, and Angels in America, among other notable works, with a libretto by John Weidman (Assassins, Pacific Overtures), and J.T. Rogers (Oslo, Blood and Gifts).

Your Houston production will be performed at 7:30pm on Saturday, September 29 at Queensbury Theatre. Marley Singletary, Queensbury's Producing Executive Director, will direct this year’s 55-minute performance of Equity actors.

Admission is free, though donations to the Dramatists Legal Defense Fund are appreciated. RSVP by emailing wduell@dramatistsguild.com.
