Extra! Extra! Provocative Playwright Mae West Runs Afoul of Broadway Censors, Her Popular Play SEX Raided for Obscenity. Tammany Hall claims it was necessary to prevent West's new homosexual drama, THE DRAG, from corrupting the youth of New York. The sultry starlet faces time in the slammer if she doesn't amend her immoral ways and stop SEX at once!

draws from court documents, newspapers, and West's own plays to explore the overt sexuality and curious queerness of her rise to fame, in this world premiere production by Artistic Director John Heimbuch.
