LC 317 - Learning Community: Banned in Boston: Sex, Scandal & Censorship on the Stage and the Page

Four Credits
Offered Periodically

This learning community will explore censorship and power in literature, theatre, and the arts in Boston, from the Puritan Era to the present, with a focus on race, social class, gender, and sexuality. We will look at books, plays, and performances that titillated audiences and taunted censors, and, in the process, capture an important perspective on the Hub’s social, cultural, and political history.

Note: This LC includes excursions to the city for tours, presentations, and performances. There will be an additional fee of $250 to cover the cost of transportation and performances.
