Many know the work of American painter Georgia O'Keeffe (Beth Grant, above) and that of Mexican born Frida Kahlo (Zilah Mendoza, top), but few know of the personal connections between the two strong and vibrant women who supposedly had a romantic affair. O'Keeffe was 20 years older than Kahlo, and both women kept in touch over the years through letters, which provides the core of the dramatic presentation Still Life. Both actresses are a joy to watch as they explore the characters' lives, accompanied by rear projections of their art and live music.
Two more performances, Friday, May 6 and Saturday, May 7 @ Los Angeles Theatre Center. See article below!
