“I made myself platinum, but I was born a dirty blonde” – Mae West
Before Gaga…
Before Madonna…
There was Mae West!
Dirty Blonde follows Jo, an aspiring actress, who admires Mae West for her determination to beat the odds. On her annual pilgrimage to West’s gravesite, Jo bumps into Charlie, a film librarian and Mae West devotee who met his aging idol at her Hollywood apartment as a teenager. These two shy fans end up finding their own self-confidence and even romance in their shared love of this entertainment icon.
Nominated for 5 Tony Awards.
