"Frida" chronicles the life Frida Kahlo shared unflinchingly and openly with Diego Rivera, as the young couple took the art world by storm. From her complex and enduring relationship with her mentor and husband to her illicit and controversial affair with Leon Trotsky, to her provocative and romantic entanglements with women, Frida Kahlo lived a bold and uncompromising life as a political, artistic, and sexual revolutionary.

Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón was a Mexican painter known for her many portraits, self-portraits, and works inspired by the nature and artifacts of Mexico. Inspired by the country's popular culture, she employed a naïve folk art style to explore questions of identity, postcolonialism, gender, class, and race in Mexican society. Her paintings often had strong autobiographical elements and mixed realism with fantasy. In addition to belonging to the post-revolutionary Mexicayotl movement, which sought to define a Mexican identity, Kahlo has been described as a surrealist or magical realist. She is also known for painting about her experience of chronic pain.

This multi award-winning show captured recently at the Sadler’s Wells Peacock Theatre is an extraordinary

musical journey paying homage to Janis Joplin and her biggest musical influences. Like a comet that burns far

queen of rock & roll. The unmistakable voice, filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort, made

her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Fuelled by such unforgettable songs as “Me and Bobby

McGee,” “Piece of My Heart”, “Mercedes Benz”, “Cry Baby” and “Summertime”, a remarkable cast and

breakout performances. A Night with Janis Joplin, written and directed by Randy Johnson, is a musical

journey celebrating Janis and her biggest musical influences—icons like Aretha Franklin, Etta

James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith, who inspired one of rock ‘n roll’s greatest legends.
