Indecent

Penned by Pulitzer Prize laureate Paula Vogel and brought to life by Vogel and Rebecca Taichman, with direction by Taichman, “Indecent” delves into the fervor and dedication to creating theater, even amidst the harshest conditions. The narrative centers on a group of actors from the cast of Sholem Asch’s “God of Vengeance,” who braved significant risks to their lives and careers to stage a play they passionately believed in, during an era when art, freedom, and truth were under scrutiny. This tale is conveyed with empathy and sincerity, infused with vibrant theatricality, and enlivened by joyful songs and dances. The filming of “Indecent” was completed just before its final Broadway show in August, with eight high-definition cameras capturing every poignant moment of the production at Broadway’s Cort Theatre.
