![]() ![]() This historic piece of Yiddish theater played to thousands across the capitals of Europe before making its Broadway debut in 1923, only to be shut down on opening night by the vice squad because it was “indecent”. ![]() Indecent charts the history of an incendiary drama and the path of the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it. Indecent opened on Broadway in 2017 to sensational reviews. Pulitzer prize-winning Paula Vogel’s play is very topical for today’s world as it delves into love relationships, antisemitism, homophobia, the power of politics, and more while still providing light-hearted and comedic moments. Inspired by true events surrounding the 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, The Concord Players are pleased to present Indecent. ![]()
