The Twentieth-Century Way

In this sexy, humorous, and moving show, explore the real events that happened in 1914 Long Beach when the LBPD hired two “special detectives” to find “social vagrants” whom they claimed were at odds with the city’s virtue.

In other words, the city hired bounty hunters to entrap gay men.

When a well-known banker committed suicide, a scandal erupted. This dark piece of Long Beach history was turned into a play by Tom Jacobsen and has been produced in New York and in theaters in California.

This show contains nudity and strong adult content.
