THE JEWISH CHRONICLE
|
A seminal work of Jewish culture or an act of traitorous libel?
Indecent
explores the origins of the highly controversial play
The God of Vengeance
by Sholem Asch. We follow the path of the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it in this deeply moving play accompanied by a small live Klezmer band. Rebecca Taichman, who won the Tony Award for Best Direction for
Indecent
on Broadway, brings her stunning production to the Chocolate factory for its European Premiere.
“Rebecca Taichman’s superb production of Paula Vogel’s gorgeous
Indecent
both wrecked me and left me exhilarated”
