The Frida Kahlo of Penge West - Rosemary Branch

KPS Productions and the Rosemary Branch presents The Frida Kahlo of Penge West, written and directed by Chris Larner, at the Rosemary Branch Theatre, near Angel, north London, from 01 Jul to 13 Jul 2014.

Synopsis: 'A two-woman comedy about one woman's struggle to stage a one-woman drama about Frida Kahlo, with two women in it... When quiet, unassertive Zoe agrees to let an old university chum sleep on her sofa for 'just a couple of nights', little does she imagine how much her life will be blown apart. For Ruth - vain, driven, and totally narcissistic, is an unemployed actor and extraordinarily cross about it. And when Ruth determines to show the world a thing or two by writing and starring in a play of her own, the hapless Zoe is dragged unwillingly into playing a supporting role or eight. Wickedly funny, caustic and absurd, this new comedy brilliantly performed by Laura Kirman and Cecily Nash has a surprising twist of a happy ending. Well, happy-ish.'

The cast of The Frida Kahlo of Penge West includes Laura Kirman and Cecily Nash.

The Frida Kahlo of Penge West features scenic design by Nina Patel-Grainger, lighting by Celia Degua, and costumes by Natalie Pryce.
