UnseamlyBy Oren Safdie
Codirected by Sarah Carlsen and Guy Sprung
Starring Arlen Aguayo Stewart, Howard Rosenstein and Jonathan Silver
In Unseamly, a young woman seeks legal advice to initiate charges of sexual harassment against her former boss, Ira Slatsky, the CEO of an international clothing company known for its risqué billboards. Female sexuality confronts male corporate power. Who is telling the truth? Who is manipulating whom? How far should/can a young woman go to take down a predator?
Is it possible that sexual harassment, undermining women, taking advantage of innocence, and the inherent corrupting influence of power and wealth may never be eradicated? Unseamly is based on a variety of events and journalistic allegations that are in the public domain. These news articles include both false accusations and stories of people being paid off. Truth is elusive and too often written by the victors. In Unseamly, the characters present their point of view and audiences get to decide what they think. Weekly post-show ‘Talkback Tuesdays’ offer an opportunity to do this in public.
