  3. Frida…A Self Portrait


Live boldly, love wildly, paint passionately — this was the uncompromising life of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Through music, movement and irresistible charm, acclaimed writer and actor Vanessa Severo crafts a poetic performance that explores Frida’s breathtaking life and astonishing genius. This sizzling play plunges into the brilliant, nuanced world of Kahlo’s tumultuous, extraordinary life, offering a vivid exploration of how we shape ourselves through the art that we love.

Vulnerable, emotional, personal, and full of joy... utterly captivating.” – BroadwayWorld

Written and Performed by Vanessa Severo
Directed by Joanie Schultz
