SYNOPSIS

IT'S TIMES LIKE THESE WHEN ART MATTERS MOST
When Sholem Asch wrote God of Vengeance, hailed by some as an essential work of Jewish culture, and vilified by others as a work of traitorous libel, he never imagined how controversial the play would be. Inspired by true events, Indecent is a riveting look at an explosive moment in theatrical and world history. This deeply moving play charts the story of an incendiary drama and the artists who risked their careers and their lives to perform it.

LISA'S NOTE

If there was ever a show destined for the Segal, this is it. "Indecent" is a powerful story from our past that tackles many relevant issues. It’s an extraordinary example of how art and culture matters, and I just had to do it.
