The Drag

By Mae West
Directed by Rebecca Miller Kratzer

The Drag, subtitled A Homosexual Comedy in Three Acts and written under the pseudonym Jane Mast, is about the cost of living with a secret life. Its hero is a closeted gay socialite, Rolly Kingsbury, who comes “from one of the finest families” and is trapped in a loveless marriage. Rolly’s father is a homophobic judge, his father-in-law a therapist who specializes in gay conversion. The Drag deals with guilt, shame and families falling apart over secrets.
