Two Love Stories Retold
In our 2024 Season, you were first introduced to these two strong females leads. This season they return for a retelling of the enduring power of love.
Step into the colorful world of Frida Kahlo with Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s critically acclaimed Broken Wings. This mini masterpiece explores the life and art of the celebrated Mexican painter. Enter the realms of the paintings themselves through the lens of Kahlo’s wildly creative spirit.
Making its comeback after a popular run of shows last season, Sir Frederick Ashton’s Marguerite and Armand is a story of fervent love, heartbreak, sacrifice, and forgiveness.
WHO IT'S FOR: Lovers of Frida Kahlo’s surrealist art, anyone with an ear for traditional Mexican folk music, and fans of stories with a powerhouse female lead. The perfect evening for anyone who has CDMX, London, or a trip to the Royal Opera House on their bucket list.
Geo Meneses & Los Macorinos
The singer and guitarists will perform the song "La Llorona" live in accompaniment to Broken Wings. Get in the mood for Broken Wings by streaming "La Llorona", on Spotify, or check out Los Macorinos' full discography.
