Debuting in 1972 to shock and fascination, OH CALCUTTA! was an X-rated off-Broadway show made up of sexually themed skits and musical numbers designed to probe the boundaries of social mores. Devised by the brilliant theater critic Kenneth Tynan, and including input from Samuel Beckett, Sam Shepard and John Lennon (among others), the show dealt indelicately with all manner of sexual peccadilloes, and though it was critically ridiculed, it ran for over a decade. The release contains a film recreation of the scandalous show.
