Prelude to a Kiss
The Arden Club Theatre brings their production of the Craig Lucas play, "Prelude to a Kiss," to the Milton stage for two nights only.
Immediately after a young couple named Peter and Rita have exchanged wedding vows, an unknown elderly man asks to kiss the bride. As he does, Rita's soul and the old man's magically exchange bodies.
Neither Peter nor the wedding guests grasp what has happened. Peter leaves the wedding with a woman he believes is Rita. During their honeymoon, he comes to realize that Rita's body is no longer inhabited by Rita's true personality. He must find the old man, and try to make himself love the spirit of Rita that is now inside that old man's body.
The play, a romantic comedy, was commissioned and originally staged by the South Coast Repertory in 1988. It opened off-Broadway at Circle Repertory Company on February 20, 1990, starring Alec Baldwin and Mary-Louise Parker, and directed by Norman Ren. After receiving rave reviews, the production moved to the Helen Hayes Theatre on Broadway. The play ran for 440 performances, received a Tony Award nomination as Best Play, and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
