"El Miocardio" with Amira Gongora-Grynsztejn

and Jorge Diaz

The inspiration for this work came from the aching and joys related to our hearts, if anybody knew intensively about that it was Frida and her life-creating process.  This is an homage to Frida and will include poetry, dance and music with audience interation


"The Self Portrait" choreographed and performed by Nadia Dosal with guest artist Valerie Handy.

This modern ballet portrays the life and legacy of artist and revolutionary, Frida Kahlo.  Nadia will be performing the last piece of her full length modern ballet, which captures Frida's struggle with her failing physical health and philosophy of nature vs nurture.
