Courting Mae West

The play "COURTING MAE WEST: Sex, Censorship & Secrets" is based on true events during the 1920s when actress MAE WEST was arrested and jailed in New York City for trying to stage two gay plays on Broadway. Maybe she broke the law - - but the LAW couldn't break HER!

Go Magazine Loves Mae West

MAE WEST was in the spotlight in "The Pride Issue" of Go Magazine: The Cultural Roadmap for the City Girl.
• • July 19 — 22, "Courting Mae West: Sex, Censorship & Secrets" takes the stage at the Algonquin Theatre. The play is based on true events during the 1920s when actress Mae West was jailed in New York City for trying to stage two gay plays on Broadway. Maybe she broke the law, but the law couldn’t break her! Yvonne Sayers takes on the role of West with plenty of sex appeal and industrial-strength charisma in a performance that’s also part of the Fresh Fruit Festival.
