Description

Death and the Maiden is a suspenseful drama that explores the darker side of humanity. When Gerardo's car breaks down, he is picked up by Roberto Miranda, a humane doctor who seems to be a good Samaritan. However, as Gerardo's wife Paulina Salas recognizes another man in Roberto's voice, she begins to question his true identity. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that everyone is implicated in the crimes of the past and justice itself comes into question. The play is relentlessly paced, filled with lethal surprises, and raises important questions about the nature of humanity. This powerful drama is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition, one that will keep you on the edge of your seat until its shocking conclusion.
