The World Premiere of FRIDA…A SELF PORTRAIT is open at Kansas City Repertory Theatre! This unique play written and performed by Vanessa Severo is so beautiful and unique, I couldn’t be more proud of the work!

“…the essence of Severo’s play isn’t easy to encapsulate. But that doesn’t mean the work is abstruse. It means Severo has attempted a level of sophisticated storytelling we seldom see from playwrights in Kansas City or anywhere else.” -Robert Trussell, KC Studio

“This Frida is a colorful and imaginative composition of pop-out scenes that flow one to the other. Taken in as a whole, this truly original work is a deeply affecting drama that leaves an ineradicable imprint.” -Deborah Hirsch, The Pitch
