It is the 1960s in Argentina, a time of civic, economic, and cultural turmoil. Window-dresser Molina is in the third year of his eight-year prison sentence for sexual deviancy. He lives in the fantasy world of cinema, conjuring up the beautiful Aurora, his favorite film star. And while he loves her, he most fears visits from her in the form of the Spider Woman, a vampy diva who kills men with her kiss. Molina’s life changes when Marxist revolutionary Valentin is pushed into this cell after being tortured. Valentin is hostile towards the flamboyant Molina, drawing a line down the center of the cell to keep their worlds separate. After the brutal torture of Valentin, the pair develop a kinship and Molina keeps Valentin’s secrets while sharing his daydreams of Aurora. Their relationship begins to extend beyond simple friendship into a true love and dedication to each other – leading to a sacrifice worthy of the cinema.

The Tony Award-winning musical Kiss of the Spider Woman runs May 21 – 25, 2019 at the Tom Hendry Warehouse Theatre (190 Rupert Avenue). Winnipeg director Christopher Brauer leads an extraordinary cast and crew, with lighting design by Winnipeg Theatre Award-winner Scott Henderson and set design by Adam Parboosingh.
