The Queen of the Silver Screen

Mae West seems to be everywhere these days. The Queen of the Silver Screen is a new original musical about the legendary film star. Set in the summer of 1953, Mae West decides to jumpstart her sagging career by writing and starring in a musical about her past, including exploits with her leading men, her muscle men, the powerful men who attacked her for what she’d written, the three very different men she met in prison, and whith her arch enemy, Louella Parsons. Book, music, and lyrics are by Daniel Lanning. Bill Gile directs.
