Broadway To Vegas

. . . SPREADING THE WORD . . .
BRITISH TV: COURTING MAE WEST the bio play by Linda Ann Loschiavo has tickled interest across the pond.
"The folks who do a TV series in Great Britain and in the USA called me from London," Loschiavo told Broadway To Vegas.
"They want me to host an episode on the Biography Channel on Mae West."
Loschiavo was told to "expect to film in New York City in October and it will air in February or March."
Loschiavo's play Courting Mae West covers the arrest, jailing, and legal aftermath surrounding Mae West's historic obscenity case. On February 9, 1927, Mae West was dragged out of a Broadway theatre, arrested for obscenity, brought to the West Side Court, and jailed there. She was charged and spent ten days at the Women's Workhouse on Welfare Island.
