Frida Kahlo is an artist who found a peace in death that she never knew in life. When Catrina, the Keeper of the Dead, summons her for a final trip into the realm of mortals, Frida is forced to confront the memory of her pain -- and the power of her art. Tonight's speaker, Dr. Lucy Caplan, received her Ph.D. in American Studies and African American Studies from Yale University in 2019, with an award-winning dissertation. She has written -- both in books, and for Boston Lyric Opera and the New Orleans Opera -- concerning racism and sexism in opera. Her insights into these problems should make this a particularly insightful preview of an enormously exciting world premiere!
