A new play with music, Indecent is written by Paula Vogel, created by Paula Vogel and Rebecca Taichman, and directed by Rebecca Taichman.

INDECENT is a provocative new play inspired by a true story that depicts the incredible journey of a controversial piece of theater and the passionate artists who risked their lives to perform it. This riveting and richly theatrical backstage drama is a celebration of art, a fierce indictment of censorship and a gripping look at an explosive moment in history. Featuring a seven member ensemble and music performed by an onstage band, Indecent comes to Broadway following a critically acclaimed sold-out Off-Broadway run.

INDECENT was uniformly praised by critics when it debuted Off-Broadway earlier this year. The production set box office records at the Vineyard Theatre, where it played to sold-out houses throughout its run.

INDECENT marks the Broadway debut of Ms. Vogel, who won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1998 for her unforgettable play HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE, which enjoyed a long, fruitful run Off-Broadway. DRIVE was also the recipient of the NY Drama Critics Circle Award, Lortel, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Obie Awards for Best Play. Ms. Vogel's numerous works - which have been widely produced in the U.S. and around the world - include BALTIMORE WALTZ, THE LONG CHRISTMAS RIDE HOME, A CIVIL WAR CHRISTMAS and AND BABY MAKES SEVEN.

The play also marks the reunion of the successful producing duo of Daryl Roth and Elizabeth Ireland McCann, who together produced an impressive run of critically-acclaimed works by Edward Albee: the Pulitzer Prize-winning THREE TALL WOMEN (1994) Off-Broadway and on national tour; the Tony Award-winning THE GOAT, OR WHO IS SYLVIA? In 2002. They mounted the renowned revival of WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? starring Kathleen Turner and Bill Irwin in 2005, and previously THE PLAY ABOUT THE BABY and BECKETT/ALBEE, both starring Brian Murray and the late Marian Seldes.
