Indecent @ PSU: Lincoln Hall
Mar 1 @ 7:30 pm

February 19 – March 8, 2020 at PSU: LINCOLN HALL
A co-production with Artists Repertory Theatre, in association with Portland State University

2:00 pm matinees on Sundays

Nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play of 2017. Sholem Asch’s play The God of Vengeance made a splash on Broadway in 1923, when it was shut down and all of the actors were arrested on charges of obscenity for portraying a lesbian romance between a brothel-owner’s daughter and one of the prostitutes. Pulitzer-prize winning playwright Paula Vogel weaves scenes of Asch’s incendiary play with the imagined conversations with the risk-taking company that brought the script to the stage. Indecent is a riveting backstage drama filled with music, groundbreaking Yiddish theatre, and stage magic.
