INDECENT Announced At Ahmanson Theatre This June

"Indecent" is a deeply moving play inspired by the true events surrounding the controversial 1923 Broadway debut of Sholem Asch's "God Of Vengeance" - a play seen by some as a seminal work of Jewish culture, and by others as an act of traitorous libel.

"Indecent" follows the history of an incendiary drama and the path of the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it. Infused with klezmer music, "Indecent" was uniformly praised by critics when it debuted Off-Broadway where Charles Isherwood of The New York Times called it "a powerful new play."

It would go on to Broadway where it was nominated for three Tony Awards, winning Best Direction and Best Lighting Design.
