London, the early ’80s and a notorious nightclub called Taboo. Margaret Thatcher reigns supreme . . . outside. Inside, an era-defining world is beginning to thrive as an amazing array of colorful characters fueled by flamboyant fashion and sexual freedom shape the face of a new generation. The story of Taboo focuses on the intersecting lives of two young men, Leigh Bowery (played by Boy George), a brilliant underground artist/performance artist, and George O’Dowd (played by Euan Morton), a scenester who grows into international pop superstar Boy George. The CD features 20 original songs penned by Boy George, as well as his classic new-wave hit “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me.” From First Night Records (www.first-night-records.com). —Suzie Lynde
