*DEATH AND THE MAIDEN*

A democratic age is dawning in an unspecified Latin American country. When
her husband offers hospitality to a stranger, Paulina, haunted by her past,
believes she recognizes their guest’s voice as that of the man who tortured
her 15 years earlier. The 48 hours that follow radically alter the lives of
all three. This 1991 thriller gave a new voice to women’s survivorship
awareness, and is an unforgettable three-handed acting triumph.

Mamai Artistic Associate and Director Katia P. Schwarz notes: “What
resonates for me is that Paulina’s experiences represent the stories of
countless others who have lived through the brutal dictatorships of Latin
America, South Africa’s Apartheid era and others. The play serves as a
stark reminder of the human rights violations we continue to witness in the
world today.”

more about this extremely important funding partner.

The financial support received from the residents of Cuyahoga County
through Cuyahoga Arts & Culture will help Mamai Theatre Company bring you

the Maiden.  In keeping with our mission to create equal opportunity for
women in the professional theatre, this production features a strong female
protagonist and is directed by a woman.
