Description

Playbill: INDECENT, 2017, by Paula Vogel, w/ Katrina Lenk (COMPANY, THE BAND'S VISIT), Tom Nelis (THE VISIT), Richard Topol
A new play with more music than some actual musicals, this tells the story of THE GOD OF VENGEANCE, a radical Yiddish play written by Solomon Asch that toured Europe with few problems until it reached Broadway--upon reaching which in 1926 was immediately shut down and the cast arrested, for its lesbian love story. A fascinating look at history, censorship, and Jewish and queer history in the early 20th century.
June 2017 Pride cover.
Playbills not only have info on the show on the cover--they also usually contain interviews with top stars, directors and playwrights. Some shows, especially Shakespeare and other plays, will include essays by the producers on their authors, histories and design. You can see what else was on Broadway at the time in the back listings section. Even the ads often feature music and movie stars to appeal to the upscale demographics that usually attends the theater.
All Playbills have been carefully stored in a pet-free, smoking-free home. Like new or very good condition, although a few may show signs of aging especially on covers where white parts can yellow slightly and black parts can smear. No tears or missing staples or pages.
All booklets will be shipped first class with a acid-free backboard in a comics-storage bag. Shipping is free within the U.S. 10% of sales are going to New York Cares, a great charity that is helping us in the city while the entertainment industry is shut down.
