El último sueño de Frida y Diego, is sung in Spanish with subtitles in both English and Spanish.

Running time: approximately two hours and 15 minutes, including one intermission

Mexico’s most iconic artists (and infamously stormy lovers) leap off the canvas in this new musical portrait from Grammy Award-winning composer Gabriela Lena Frank and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Nilo Cruz. When a desperate wish on Day of the Dead reunites Diego Rivera with his wife Frida Kahlo, he jumps at the chance to seek forgiveness. But Frida refuses to return to the world that caused her so much pain, until another departed soul inspires her to look back at the art (and the man) she once loved.

Resident Conductor Lina González-Granados commands a cast packed with international talent, including Daniela Mack, Alfredo Daza and Ana María Martínez in this tribute to one of the most pivotal romances in history. The artists‘ own emblematic paintings merge with a folklore-inspired score to breathe new life into the love-hate saga of Frida and Diego. Don't miss your chance to experience what the LA Times calls one of the "must-see arts events" this Fall.

"On a purely visual level, 'Frida y Diego' is an endless delight...Frank’s score matches this bounty note for note and shade for shade...alluring and beautifully crafted."
Joshua Kosman – San Francisco Chronicle

“A confident, richly imagined score...magically spooky...as visually seductive as any staging I’ve seen in the past few years”
Alex Ross – New Yorker
