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?
