John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Terrence McNally’s hauntingly beautiful seven-time Tony Award–winning musical returns in a revelatory revival directed and choreographed by Tony winner Andy Blankenbuehler (Hamilton). Featuring one of Kander and Ebbs most lush and evocative scores, this adaptation of Manuel Puig’s 1976 novel “captures the magic that musicals were meant for” (Wall Street Journal).

Imprisoned under brutal conditions in 1970s Latin America, unlikely companions Molina and Valentin find solace in each other and the beguiling tales of the glamorous movie star Aurora. These enchanting Old Hollywood fantasies allow them the means to hold onto their humanity in this powerful story of hope and resilience that feels as urgent today as ever.
