An intimate and enticing performance that explores the life, loves and legacy of painter Frida Kahlo.

Winner of the prestigious Herald Angel Award at the 2014 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Falling in love with Frida is a reclaiming of a disabled artist, a love like obsession and an enquiry into how we shape what we are remembered for and how much can we really control others memories of us. It exposes many little-known facts about the infamous woman, remembered for her art. Where affinities and parallels are drawn, happy distractions are employed and a tale of ‘the great concealer’ is skillfully revealed by and through powerful yet fragile bodies.
Age: 16+
Running time: 55 minutes
Price includes a simple bowl of something hearty and delicious served in the barn.
Food is served at 7pm, followed by the performance and conversation.

Join us on the first Friday of every month for Curious. Discover new works, chat with the artists and enjoy a hearty bowl of food served up by award-winning Buchanan Food. This first season includes cutting edge dance, music and physical theatre.

Coming up: Fiona Soe Paing (October) and Red Note Ensemble (November).
