Kiss of the Spider Woman

By Kander, Ebb & McNally

October 25 – November 3

Kiss of the Spiderwoman tells the story of two men who share a prison cell in Latin America - Molina, a gay window-dresser imprisoned for seducing a minor, and Valentin, a straight Marxist and now political prisoner. In order to escape the torments of imprisonment, Molina conjures up a fantasy world that centers on Aurora, his favorite actress from the movies he watched as a child. He has loved her in every role except that of the Spider Woman, a vixen who kills with her kiss.
