"Looking for Frida," an original modern ballet based on the life of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, choreographed originally by Susan Collard in 1998, and later revised in collaboration with Cuban dancer Nelson Reyes in 2004. Now, Susan and Giles Collard have put their creative energy together to recreate this heartbreaking dance adventure into the passionate lives of Frida, Diego, and Trotsky.
ACDT dancer Jaime Scott McDowell will perform the role of Frida, while Becky Stone, Asheville actress, storyteller, and singer will perform the role of Diego Rivera, Frida's famous Mexican muralist husband. Giles Collard will perform the role of Leon Trotsky, the Russian revolutionary who was assassinated in Mexico. ACDT dancers will perform the roles of the many personalities in Frida's colorful life.
ACDT's box office will be closing online "Looking for Frida" tickets for Friday, June 27, and Saturday, June 28, early because those will be sold-out shows, if you would like to be put on a waiting list for those shows (there may be some tickets available at the door), call the box office at 828 254-2621 and let Susan and Giles know. Thank you for your Frida love!
