Published for the first time in Spanish more than three decades after its premiere, The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me is a semi-autobiographical monologue in which actor, director and playwright David Drake tells us about his journey of self-discovery as a gay man while describing the devastating effects of the AIDS crisis , which ravaged the LGBTQ+ community in the 1980s.

The author used the anger and frustration that dominated the ACT UP movement and the impact of seeing Larry Kramer's The Normal Heart on stage to write his own activist play , which premiered at the Perry Street Theatre in New York in June 1992, a few days before his birthday and the anniversary of the Stonewall riots.

The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me ran for a full year, making it one of the longest-running stand-up comedy shows in the Big Apple. It has been staged in fifty productions around the world and has been translated into French, Greek, and Portuguese, among others. In 2000, it was adapted for film by Tim Kirkman, starring the author himself.
