Midnight at the Cinema Palace, plus Mae West and the Trial of Sex

Christopher Tradowsky’s debut novel Midnight at the Cinema Place drops June 10. His novel is a luminant exploration of 90s queer culture and the complexities of friends discovering love and themselves in San Francisco. Walking Shadow’s production of Mae West and the Trial of Sex opens May 31 at Walking Shadow Theater in Minneapolis. Its playwright, John Heimbuch, joins us to talk about the curious queerness of Mae West’s rise to fame as she fought against an obscenity charge in 1927.
