Blood Tango the Musical
A Romantic Tragedy "...sensual and thrilling."
A MUSICAL FOR RIGHT NOW!
-
Neither the "suave-monster-preys-on-helpless-damsel" nor the old formula of the men riding in to rescue the maiden, but with a strong feminist theme.
-
Songs of passion, longing, and humor with universal appeal--including audiences who feel left behind by current musicals.
-
Perennially popular every October.
-
What’s more erotic than Vampires? The Tango!
-
Set in an English drawing room in 1922, the characters include a brilliant Hispanic orphan, her tango-obsessed sister and her fiancé, their alcoholic German tutor, their father who runs an asylum below their living quarters, a crazed patient with religious delusions, the trusty Cockney butler, and...their immigrant housekeeper and wise woman WHO SAVES THEM ALL.
THE STORY...
-
A beautiful young nobleman was bitten by bats four centuries ago and is cursed with unending life.
-
He is driven to drink the blood of virgins; he injects heroin to soothe his misery.
-
His blood and body bring either death or enduring life.
-
He vows to renounce his addictions to become fully human again.
-
He repairs to an English sanatorium on the North Sea.
-
He is unaware that the doctor in charge has two lovely virginal daughters and cabinets full of drugs.
WILL LOVE SAVE HIM
OR DESTROY HIM?
