About

Reflecting Fridas by Ana Maria Lines

The life and work of the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo is the inspiration for the show "Reflecting Fridas", created and performed by Brazilian storyteller Ana Maria Lines.  Frida's soul echos in many of us.  Frida's diversities, love, injuries, suffering were the subject for her work.  A unique life, an exceptional woman.

The sell-out show was launched at the Edinburgh International Storytelling Festival 2016, and returned to Edinburgh in 2017.  Performed at in multitude of venues including Findhorn, Settle Festival and Singapore.

'Ana Maria Lines captivated the audience.  As if putting brush strokes on a canvas, she painted the colourful and dramatic life of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo with all its highlights and shadows - an invitation, like Frida's self portraits, to enter a doorway into her home, life, heart and soul'.  John Vidal, Willow Gallery. Oswestry

'A tour de force.  Everything works, from her charming storytelling style to the brilliant narrative structure of the show which allows her to interweave three folktales into Frida's extraordinary life story.  A great deal of research and rehearsal must have taken place to produce such a seemingly effortless piece. Estupendo'.  Candi Miller, Wolverhampton University

'Fabulous telling ...an insight into Frida's life with stories ...brought tears in my eyes'.  Daisy Black, Sheffield
