On today’s program:
- Perseverance Theatre closes its season with Paula Vogel’s “Indecent” from February 16 through March 3
- Set in the early 20th century, Indecent follows the true story of Sholem Asch’s controversial play, God of Vengeance. As this groundbreaking Yiddish work journeys from the stages of Europe to Broadway, it faces censorship and fierce opposition due to its lesbian protagonists. Through ensemble storytelling and evocative live music, Indecent explores the persecution of artists and the undeniable impact of work that pushes the boundary.
