At the Teatro Verdi on 28 February a tribute to Frida Kahlo, one of the City of Padua’s contemporary dance events promoted by the culture department.
The show opens the XXVII edition of the Prospettiva Danza Teatro 2025 festival that, starting from the Teatro Verdi, will travel through the most prestigious venues of the city.
Frida is a work on the life and art of the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and transports the audience on an exotic journey to a dreamlike world where music, visual arts and dance come together.
As in a guided tour, dance and images of the works show the beauty and challenges of Frida’s life as a unique woman and artist of her time and express the passionate nature of her inner life. They show a deep inner world and culture, create a festive atmosphere and describe her personal life in a few remarkable moments.
What is shown is not the life of Frida Kahlo, but a theatrical vision of a sensitive and colourful world, inspired by the artist’s life journey.
Frida is a world-renowned artist, and this work allows those who love her to see her art and life in a new perspective. Many have been inspired by her work, her struggles for fair treatment, her visions and her tenacity.
The show, with a contemporary point of view, immerses us in deep Mexico, in Frida’s homeland, with its surprises and revelations, putting a new face on the emotions and passions that marked her life.
Frida was created in collaboration with Hungarian National Dance Theatre.
Show starts at 21:00.
