DESCRIPTION

La Casa Azul paints an impressionistic portrait of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, highlighting both her flamboyant and passionate personality and her uncommon artistic talent. La Casa Azul shows Frida Kahlo in the last moments of her life, as she engages in a dialogue with Death, hours before the inauguration of her first and only exhibit in Mexico City. La Casa Azul is seasoned stage actress Sophie Faucher's first stage play, while director Robert Lepage has been associated with the project from the beginning, bringing additional layers of meaning to Faucher’s text with the visual elegance for which he is renowned.
