Author's Note: This story takes place in a universe without STDs. If you have any hangups about any sexual activity between consenting adults, you probably don't want to read this, as it is about INCEST, MALE & FEMALE BISEXUALITY, with INTERRACIAL fun, too. Comments are always enjoyed.
The Play
"I have received a most interesting request," Professor John Smith announced at the beginning of theater class for that term. "Since our policy is to always bring these type of requests, those that affect everyone, to your collective attention, I find that I must share this request with you, as off the wall as it is. Someone has proposed that we do the play Family Debauchery for our play this term. Other than the student who submitted this, has anyone heard of Family Debauchery?"
"Wasn't it controversial?" Mary Lou asked.
"Very," Professor Smith replied. "In fact, it was so controversial that it never played. Too much pressure was brought to bear."
"Why is it so controversial?" Todd asked.
"For starters, the theme," Professor Smith replied. "Incest is not a subject that most people are comfortable discussing, much less sitting through a play about."
"We shouldn't have to be afraid of discussing anything," Sheila said.
"I agree," Professor Smith said, "but discussing incest and doing a play based upon it are two very different things."
"That's it, it's controversial because of the subject?" Rod asked.
"It's also controversial because the play involves nudity and sex," Professor Smith replied. "Live, actual sex on stage, not faked."
The silence that greeted this was deafening. Everyone was shocked to one degree or another.
"A pornographic play?" Susan asked.
"Essentially, yes," Professor Smith replied.
"Would we be allowed to even put on such a play?" James asked.
"That's another question altogether," Professor Smith answered. "The first question I have is are you as a class interested in seriously considering this play along with a few others that I was going to suggest?"
"What if I don't want to do a play like this?" Suzi asked.
"Our policy has always been that we all agree on the play," Professor Smith said. "If everyone isn't buying in, fully invested, then it won't work and that's not what we're about. It's not just learning to act or learning how a play works, it's also exploring yourself, challenging yourself, learning about yourselves."
"What would happen to us if we did a play like this?" Tim asked. "I want an acting career. I wasn't thinking of being type-cast and limited to porn. Wouldn't that be likely?"
"It would be a definite possibility," Professor Smith agreed, nodding. "One thing is certain, it would be an historical event. Everyone involved would end up famous, their names known in the annals of theater history, for better or for worse."
"So, if we go on stage and have sex together, we'll be famous?" Sara asked.
"Only if you're good," Sam called out, which caused everyone to burst out in laughter.
"It sounded funny," Professor Smith said when they had gotten control of themselves, wiping the tears from their cheeks, "but Sam had a valid point. Anyone can go on stage and have sex; not everyone can act, play a part, sell it, engage the audience, draw them into the story so that they're a part of the story by the time it ends. That is the essence that we strive for in theater. So let me ask you right now; do any of you refuse to consider a play of this sort?" he asked, looking at his 16 students.
There was a lot of fidgeting as everyone looked around, gauging their fellow students while thinking about it.
"I have to admit that I'm a bit surprised," Professor Smith said after a couple of minutes when nobody had spoken up to demur. "I'll have copies of the play prepared for you for the next class. Meanwhile, come pick up a copy of each of the three plays that I suggest we consider; Victor, Victoria, The Taming of the Shrew, and Rent, which is based on Giacomo Puccini's opera La Boehme.

"It looks like it's going to be an interesting class this term," John said when he sat down for dinner that evening.
"Do you know who suggested Family Debauchery for our play?" Sara asked.
"I couldn't tell you if I did, Sara," John said. "You know that."
"But dad, how could we possibly get away with putting on a play like that?" Brian asked.
"Did you say Family Debauchery?" Trish asked, staring at her twins, then her husband.
"Yes," Sara replied. "Someone in our class proposed it for our play this term. Do you know about it?"
"It was very controversial a number of years ago, before you were born," Trish replied. "You're going to do Family Debauchery?" she asked, looking at her husband.
"That's up to the class," John replied, "as it always is. I explained it broadly, what the subject matter is, that it involves nudity and live sex on stage. None of them said that they wouldn't do a play like that."
"Really!" Trish exclaimed. "You didn't speak up?" she asked Sara.
Even though they were twins, there was nothing identical about them. Sara was just over 5' tall with short red hair and green eyes. She had a pert, upturned nose with pale freckled skin, like her father. She had been born singing a song and had studied dance her whole life, from ballet to ballroom. Brian was 6'5" with short blonde hair and blue eyes, like his mother. An all-around athlete, he was extremely well fit at 225lbs. Like his sister, though, he had a passion for acting, even though he was working towards a degree in computer science.
"I haven't seen the play script yet," Sara replied.
"But you know what is involved," Trish said.
"I want to read it before I make any judgments," Sara said.
"But you'd consider doing a play that required you to have real sex on stage in front of an audience?" Trish asked, her face showing her astonishment.
"I don't know, maybe," Sara replied.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"John, how did this happen?" Trish asked that night when they were in bed.
"One of the students submitted it," John said, then explained. "I was floored, but I decided that ignoring it would create even more of an issue, so I just dealt with it like any other student suggestion that gets submitted. I don't think that they're going to be interested after reading the play script," he added.
"It didn't stop us," Trish reminded him, "and kids are a lot more open-minded these days in general."
"Do you really think that Sara would do something like that?" John asked.
"In one way she far surpasses me at the same age," Trish said. "Her love and need of attention. That was a part of my decision to do it, I don't mind admitting now."
"You just like being watched when you're having sex," John said with a laugh.
"I seem to remember you enjoyed watching," Trish said.
"And I still never get tired of it," John said.
"You're changing the subject," Trish complained. "If they do any serious research, they're going to find out about us."
"If they do, then we'll deal with it," John said. "I've been thinking about this. I could lose my job. There are so many downsides to doing this, more than back then, it feels. Including the kids. But I never have and will never have any sense of shame or embarrassment about it."
"There's an upside?" Trish asked.
"Just like back then," John replied. "It's still about making history, being a catalyst for change, exploring our boundaries."
"I hope that they pick one of the other plays," Trish said, rolling over and taking John's cock into her mouth, sliding her leg across his body so that he could glue his mouth to her pussy.

"Would you really have live sex on stage?" Brian asked his twin as they walked to class the next day.
"I don't know, maybe," Sara replied. "Would you do it?"
"I don't know, probably," Brian answered. "But I'm a guy. I think it's a bit different."
"It shouldn't be," Sara said with some heat. "But I don't think that we're going to need to worry about it. I'm sure that some of the class will not want anything to do with it."
"And how are you going to vote?" Brian asked.
"Like I told mom, I need to read the play script first," Sara replied. "Then I'll decide which script I like the best."
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"Okay, you've all had a chance to read all four of the scripts," Professor Smith said. "We're now going to go through the process of deciding which one you want to do. Keep in mind that it's very unlikely that everyone's first choice is the same. You need to be flexible. This is about acting, remember, and learning the process. In the real world, you're not always going to get the parts you want, you'll have to settle for parts that maybe weren't your first choice. That's the same here."
"What we'll do is just a show of hands for each of the plays," Professor Smith explained. "Then we'll eliminate the one with the fewest votes and do it again until we only have one."
To John's surprise, Victor, Victoria was the first one eliminated, followed by The Taming of the Shrew, while more than half of the class voted for Family Debauchery on each vote.
"We're down to the last two," Professor Smith announced. "I'd like a few of you to stand up and explain why you want either of the two that we're still considering."
"I like Rent because of how edgy it is," Todd said. "I mean, Puccini wrote it in 1895 and you only have to transpose the time and place to find that we have the exact same problems still today."
"Rent excited me," Janice said. "There's something really raw about it. I mean, it hits all of the buttons; alcohol, drugs, homosexuality, it's got it all."
"I think Family Debauchery is incredibly in your face," Suzi said. "I mean, I couldn't argue with anyone who says that it's pornographic, but at the same time it really puts a taboo issue front and center."
