Dirty Books is an immersive performance that plunges audiences into the heated battles over anti-obscenity laws and censorship in America. Inspired by the true stories of erotic fiction writers of the 1960's and using Supreme Court-inspired transcripts, Dirty Books reveals the ingenuity and resilience of artists who thrived in the shadows of America's anti-obscenity laws working in the soft-core adult publishing industry. Inside an intimate world of secret bookstores, banned novels, and underground desire, the audience collaborates with the company to compose an erotic story.
Beginning each performance morning at 9 AM ET, $29 rush tickets for Dirty Books are available for the same day’s performance via the TodayTix app. More tickets may open for purchase throughout the day. There is a limit of 2 tickets per person and subject to availability.
Dirty Books stars Alaina Bozarth, Alexis Pratt, Sammy Rivas, Laura Walter, and Grayson Willenbacher; with understudies Elisa Grace Davis, Claire Hampsey, and Camilo Zuqui.
Alongside Lieberman, the production team includes Jacob P.S Lemmenes (technical director), Yung-Hung Sung (set and lighting design), Tojo Rasedoara (sound design), Stephanie Lopez (costume design), Lauren DeLeon (intimacy coordinator), Ansley Jackson(stage manager), Karyme Herrera (assistant stage manager), with Table 7 (marketing and social media) and India Stachyra (marketing assistant).
