CENSORED!!!
Conceived, written and directed by
Brian Jucha.
Premiered April 1997 at The Ohio
Theater, New York City. Presented by Via Theater.
A startling
look at censorship, terrorism, heroism, media and popular culture. A chaotic
journey through a film noir murder mystery world. Stylistically, the piece
examines the dance and theater styles of Michael Bennett, Busby Berkley,
Bob Fosse and is inspired by the movie Censorship Letters from the Hays
Office, 1934 to 1968 which provided the moral guidelines for the popular
arts and entertainment industry over thirty years.
