Tony Kushner's Adaptation of 17th Century Play The Illusion
- Full Price:
- $25.00
- Our Price:
- $10.00
With this modern reinvention, Tony Kushner (Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of Angels in America) triumphantly reinvents L'illusion Comique,, the fascinating, theatrical fairy-tale first told by French classical dramatist Pierre Corneille more than 370 years ago. A father, on a mission to reunite with his estranged son, enlists the services of a powerful sorcerer who conjures up provocative images from the young man's life. The father is led deep into a maze of romance, intrigue, conspiracy, and murder. But just how much of it is true? Witty and profound, timely and transcendent, The Illusion weaves reality and truth with the magic of the theater. Learn More

The show offered a stimulating and gritty look at Kahlo's life. Marian Licha was outstanding as she moved through each event with the ease of a chameleon. I wish every student of art (as well as everyone else) could see this show!Written on Jun 28 2010

Description
Frida Vice Versa
Written by Marian Licha and R. Dennis Green
Directed by Jessica Lefkow
Lighting Design by Frank Coleman
Marian Licha’s one-woman show flourishes on the conceit that the audience might be among Frida Kahlo’s students at La Esmeralda School for Painting in Mexico City in a master class exploring love, loss and redemption. Frida inspires her students to live life with passion. Her teaching unfolds as a personal story-packaged as ten “lessons.” It reveals itself with the black humor of tragedy, accidents, opposites, and irony that ruled her memorable life. The first lesson becomes the final lesson; death can be life and vice-versa.
Recommended for ages 14 and older.
