Published for the first time in Spanish more than three decades after its premiere, La noche en que Larry Kramer me besó is a semi-autobiographical monologue in which actor, director, and playwright David Drake recounts his journey of self-discovery as a gay man while describing the devastating effects of the AIDS crisis that ravaged the LGTBIQ+ community in the 1980s.

The author channeled 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 he performed at its premiere at the Perry Street Theatre in New York in June 1992, just days before his birthday and the anniversary of the Stonewall riots.

La noche en que Larry Kramer me besó ran for an entire year, making it one of the longest-running monologues in the Big Apple. It has been produced in around fifty productions worldwide and translated into French, Greek, Portuguese, among others. In 2000, it was adapted into a film by Tim Kirkman and starred the author himself.
