ABOUT THE SHOW:

Set in a 1920s Harlem speakeasy, Scandalous People is a “jazzical” rife�with leggy chorus girls, vaudevillian antics, backstage�drama and comedy.� The story revolves around Dewey Demarkov, an African-American showman and resident impresario of the Do Drop Inn.�Dewey’s innovative productions garner the praise and attention of the infamous Mae West, who wants a show built around her; and the notorious gangster Dutch Schultz, who’s looking for a foray into Harlem’s speakeasy scene.�With their money and support, Dewey’s dream of mounting a groundbreaking black and white revue on racially polarized Broadway seems within reach…but at what cost?�
