Midwestern Theater Troupe Presents SEX at the Nightingale Theater
By: Jennie Mamary Dec. 09, 2011
Midwestern Theater Troupe will present Sex by Mae West on December 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, and 17. Performances begin at 8:00PM. Tickets are $10.
Sex is the story of an ambitious working-class prostitute who beats the system. In her search for a better life, Margy Lamont travels from Montreal brothel to Trinidad nightclub to Connecticut mansion. The broadly comic play is filled with gangsters and molls, sailors and society matrons, and the language ricochets like bullets. Sex examines the relationship between sexuality and commerce, and the myriad of forms that prostitution takes. It balances the dark realities of the 1920s underworld with high comedy, and, of course, innuendo.
