Description
The 9 Fridas is written by British playwright Kaite O’Reilly and directed by Prof. Phillip Zarrilli, renowned as an advocate of a system of theatre training in which body and mind become one. He will lead a cast of performers from Taipei and Hong Kong to bring the different faces of Frida to life. The 9 Fridas is not simply a traditional biographical work, but a New Writing one in form of narrative theatre utilizing soliloquys, dialogues, footages and narrations to create and examine the artist’s struggles in life, and to shed light on situations today.
