The rumors were true and Pulitzer winner Paula Vogel’s Indecent will land on Broadway this season. The production is set to begin previews in early April 2017 prior to opening on April 18 at a Shubert Theatre to be announced.
Directed by Rebecca Taichman and choreographed by David Dorfman, the show played off-Broadway's Vineyard Theatre earlier this year; the cast included Katrina Lenk, Mimi Lieber, Max Gordon Moore, Tom Nelis, Steven Rattazzi, Richard Topol and Adina Verson. No word yet on who will be starring in the production on the Main Stem.
Indecent, created by Vogel and Taichman, features music by Lisa Gutkin and Aaron Halva and follows the events surrounding the premiere of the controversial 1923 play God of Vengeance, considered an important work of Jewish culture by some and libel by others.
Indecent will be the first work of Vogel's on Broadway; she won a Pulitzer in 1998 for How I Learned to Drive. The production will feature scenic design by Riccardo Hernandez, costume design by Emily Rebholz, lighting design by Chris Akerlind, sound design by Matt Hubbs and projection design by Tal Yarden.
