Readings of short excerpts from Indecent, backstage and behind the scenes footage of the work in development, and a discussion with Paula Vogel, David Savran, and Debra Caplan.Ĭo-curated by Janet Werther, Ph.D student, The Graduate Center, CUNY. Indecent charts the history of an incendiary drama and the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it. Indecent is inspired by the true events surrounding the controversial 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. Paula Vogel, who received the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for her play How I Learned To Drive at Vineyard Theatre, returns to the Vineyard with Indecent-a play commissioned by Yale Rep and American Revolutions and co-created with the director Rebecca Taichman ( Stage Kiss).
