THURSDAY 11/7
“El Beso en la Telarana” Fort Lauderdale has always been the “anglo-gay” side of Miami, but that doesn’t man there isn’t a rich appreciation of Hispanic heritage. With the new premiere of “El Beso en la Telarana” Fort Lauderdale bridges that gap further by creating a play entirely in Spanish. Written by acclaimed Argentinian writer Manuel Puig, “El Beso en la Telarana” may be better known as its film and musical incarnation Kiss of the Spiderwoman. The play revolves around the contrasting passions of two imprisoned men: the rebellious, dangerous Valentin and the effeminate, empathetic Molina. As Valentin grows angrier and more stifled by his imprisonment and the politically unstable Argentina of the time, Molina
escapes further into the fantasy world of his flamboyant mind. At some point, these two disparate personalities forge a bond, and the men fall for each other. The play, which runs until November 16 and contains full nudity. Please be advised that this show is intended for an adult-only audience. For more information, visit classccreations.com. 8 p.m. Andrews Living Arts Studio. 23 NW 5th St, Fort Lauderdale, 33301.
FRIDAY 11/8
Brian McKnight And from the offensive to the, well, offensive in its inoffensiveness. Brian McKnight, God of the romance-me-to-bed set, brings his R&B soulful love songs to the Hard Rock Live, ready to serenade a few bitter women and engagementring-looking gay men. A SeventhDay Adventist, Brian McKnight has had an illustrious career spanning more than a decade of both musicmaking and failed talk-show creating. The Brian McKnight Show in 2009 somehow never found an audience and was canceled. Persuade your boyfriend to take you to the Hard Rock tonight, and maybe a bubble bath, some champagne, and a ring await you at home. 7:30 p.m. Hard Rock Live. 1 Seminole Way, Hollywood, 33314.
