Before her capture in 1976, human rights activist Paulina Salas raged against her country's brutally oppressive dictatorship and helped countless refugees escape persecution. After her release, she married aspiring political idealist Gerardo Escobar and spent the next 15 years living in relative solitude, battling the physical and psychological scars left by her abductors. Until one night, for no particular reason, the architect of her past horror walked through her front door.

Or did he? The voice sounds the same. Mannerisms. The feel of his skin. But how can Paulina be sure, having never seen his face until now? Is this the doctor responsible for weeks of unimaginable abuse and torture, or a friendly neighbor who stopped to help the wrong person change a tire? Brownwater Productions performance of Ariel Dorfman's "Death And The Maiden" stars E. Christopher Clark, Gary Locke and Elizabeth O'Connell as Paulina.
