2. Mr. Madam - confessions of a male madam

Wade McCollum [Wicked, Jersey Boys] has landed back in Portland (Oregon) for a three-week run of a new play by Donnie (Don Horn). 

Wade plays Kenneth Marlowe who in 1964 wrote a book that caused quite a stir, MR. MADAM - CONFESSIONS OF A MALE MADAM.

The play follows the life of Kenneth Marlowe from 1926 to 1975, where at the age of 50 transitions to becoming Kate Marlowe.

In July 2010 Armistead Maupin commented: "I met Kenneth Marlow in 1972 when he was in the process of becoming Kate Marlowe. He threw a fundraising Big Band dance at which Sally Rand (then 70) performed her famous Fan Dance under a VERY DIM blue bulb. He called the evening "The Ball to End All Balls." When I interviewed her later (Kate) she told me she'd grown up in a whorehouse in Winnemucca, Nevada. I'm not at all sure if that was true but it was a fascinating detail, so I appropriated it for Anna Madrigal in Tales of the City."
