Taboo
Taboo is a stage musical with a book by Mark Davies Markham (extensively rewritten for the Broadway production by Charles Busch), lyrics by Boy George, and music by George, John Themis, Richie Stevens, and Kevan Frost. Set in an abandoned London warehouse, the show tells the story of a group of people (partly based on real people and partly fictional), some of whom had been connected to the New Romantic club scene some years earlier, culminating with the opening of the now-legendary Taboo (1985–87) of the title, which was the creation of Leigh Bowery, at the end of Act I. Boy George is featured as one of the club's regulars, as he was known to have been in the 1980s, and the show also focuses on George's life prior to and after achieving fame.
