Description:
In what became one of his final live performances, controversial comedian Lenny Bruce takes the stage at San Francisco's Basin Street West. His set that night primarily involved reading excerpts and transcripts from his ongoing obscenity trials, followed by his own commentary on the events. While interspersed with comedic moments – including stories of a prison riot involving Dutch Schultz, the Warden, Father Flotski, and Sabu the prison doctor – the performance is largely a critique of government overreach and censorship, rather than a traditional comedy show.
