Blonde Poison

Gail Louw's stunning play examines the motivation of evil and is based on the true story of a Jewish woman during World War ll who betrayed up to 3,000 fellow Jews. Stella went from tortured victim to cruel killer, from loving daughter to betrayer of friends, from gentle lover to depraved promiscuity. She was given the name 'Blonde Poison' by the Gestapo who revelled in her treachery. Decades after the war Stella agrees to be interviewed by a well-respected journalist - her last chance for redemption. Can she ever be released from her past?
