"Courting Mae West" Offers Safe Sex

Actor P.J. Sosko Describes How to Extend Pleasure with a free Safe Sex Kit

New York, NY (PRWEB) January 30, 2005 -- Hot on the heels of a news headline that "Unsafe Sex Burdens Health in U.S.," the cast of "Courting Mae West" made an announcement in Manhattan. On Wednesday February 9, 2005, individuals who attend the commemorative performance will receive a free Safe Sex Kit "Light Love" courtesy of Pjur Group USA.

Proshanky Auditorium at C.U.N.Y. Graduate Center [located at 365 Fifth Avenue, NYC 10016] has 396 seats and "hundreds of attendees will receive this gift," promised P.J. Sosko, who has the role of Mario "Shortie" De Angelis, the reporter who is "courting" the blonde bombshell of Broadway: Mae West.

The play by downtown dramatist LindaAnn Loschiavo is set in New YorkCity during 1926 - 1929, when the actress was arrested and jailed twice for obscenity.

Allison Tilsen, the buxom blonde who plays Mae West, described the freebies as the perfect present for this premiere. On Wednesday February 9, 1927, Mae West was arrested at Dalys 63rd Street Theatre and her play "Sex" was shut down by the Police Department, said Tilsen. "Sex" wasnt safe. The play was suggestive and raunchy and ahead of its time. "Its an ideal opportunity to remind our audience that sex should be fun - as well as safe," added Tilsen, a heart-stopping beauty who walked down the aisle in September with a man she calls "lucky Jim."

P.J. Sosko, an actor whos been seen onstage in New York City and Los Angeles, and who guest-starred recently in an episode of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," endorses healthy behavior.

"A bachelor must do three things alone," he said. "Be born, die, and satisfy - which means protecting your partner from unsavoury side-effects."

Sosko was referring to a report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that said: "The public health burden related to unsafe sexual activity is three times higher in the U.S. than in other developed nations."

In the journal Sexually Transmitted Infections, the researchers revealed disturbing findings:
- The majority of this public health burden falls on women - - 62 percent of behavior-related adverse health events.
- Cervical cancer was the leading cause of sex-related mortality among women, followed by HIV.
- Men suffered the majority of deaths (66 percent), primarily from HIV.

Come Up and See Mae on February 9th and, after the performance, you can extend your pleasure with a free Safe Sex Kit.
