Mae West was an American actress, singer, screenwriter, comedian, and playwright known for her bawdy double entendres and breezy sexual independence. In 1927, she spent 10 days in prison, charged with “obscenity and corrupting the morals of youth” for the play she had written, directed, and was performing in. 'The Drag' is inspired by her work.
A party in the 1920s is our window into the lives of New Yorkers and newlyweds Roland and Clair. The play delves into a world of decadence and ruptured mundanity, exploring strained relationships and the pain that comes with having to hide who you are.
