4th Wall Theatre, Inc presents
Kiss Of The Spider Woman - the musical
Feb 17 - March 4
12 Miles West Performing Arts Center, Bloomfield NJ. Exit 148 on GSP
Winner of the Tony Award for Best Broadway Musical, Kiss of the Spider Woman revamps a harrowing tale of persecution into a dazzling spectacle that juxtaposes gritty realities with liberating fantasies. Cell mates in a Latin American prison, Valentin is a tough revolutionary undergoing torture and Molina is an unabashed homosexual serving eight years for deviant behavior. Molina shares his fantasies about an actress, Aurora, with Valentin. One of her roles that frightens Molina is that of a Spider Woman who kills with a kiss.
This moving story of two men, trapped not only by the walls of their Argentine prison but by the oppression of politics and society, tells a story that is just as relevant today as it was when the book was written in the 1970s.
Other musicals by Kander and Ebb include Cabaret, Chicago, The Rink and Steel Pier. In addition to such plays as Love! Valour! Compassion! and Master Class, Librettist Terrence McNally has also written the book for the musical Ragtime. This musical brings these 3 creative minds together in a blend that makes for a powerful night at the theatre.

The Spider reviews are in!!!!
"4th Wall Theatre's current production of Kander & Ebb's 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' is searing, seamless and nothing short of genious!"
- Ruth Ross Essex Journal
"The unfortunate Molina is well played by Jason Tamashausky, who has a fantastic voice and terrific physical expression, with a sense of feminine grace."
- Joanne Futrell Montclair Times
"Alex Kanter's portrayal of Valentin is equally as strong as he turns a taciturn, uptight radical into a human being...." - Ruth Ross Essex Journal
"The sensual Aurora/Spider Woman is played by Roxanna Arrojo with a fine voice and fluidly seductive movements, enhanced by her outstanding Spider Woman wardrobe."
- Joanne Futrell Montclair Times
"Joan Ludwig is heart breaking...Dorothy Dobkowski is lovely...Bruce McCandless Shines..." - Ruth Ross Essex Journal
"Frank Malvasi plays a powerful, threatening characterization of the Warden....an intense intimidating tyrant, Malvasi presents wonderful singing and acting."
- Joanne Futrell Montclair Times
"....the complex score, magnificent singing and ingenious staging make this a memorable and powerful theatrical event. Bravo, 4th Wall!"
- Ruth Ross Essex Journal |
