Book Launch Party, Dorothy Parker's "The Ladies of the Corridor" May 14, 2008

One of Dorothy Parker’s most overlooked pieces of writing is coming back to print. The Ladies of the Corridor is a 1953 Broadway drama she co-wrote with Arnaud d’Usseau, a Hollywood and Broadway veteran.

The Dorothy Parker Society is hosting a splashy party! Save the date: Wednesday, May 14, 6:30 p.m. at Hurley’s, 232 W 48th St. (between Broadway and Eighth). It is right next door to the Longacre Theatre, the same place The Ladies of the Corridor debuted in October 1953. We will be on the third floor for the party, which is cash bar. Hurley’s is a fantastic spot, and beloved by those in the theater business. The book will be available. We also have lined up actors who will perform a brief staged reading of parts of the play. The actors are: Glenn B. Stoops, Maureen Van Trease, Natalie Wilder, and Verna Pierce.
