Sylvia Camarda and Sascha Ley devote an interdisciplinary evening of theater to the woman of pain and get surprisingly close to the heroine.

Always changing, always new, always surprising. Who is the dancer, who is the singer, who is the actress? The boundaries are blurred. (...) Sometimes there is also a tinge of absurdity. (...) At the end the songs are sad, the fight becomes a dance of death. And yet we see no victim, but both a strong and desperate woman. Even in these terms, the performance is incontestable. Strong.

A ribbon around a bomb - "Mi Frida" a dance theatre performance

The performance succeeds with humour and seriousness to immerse ourselves in the ambiguous world of this artist. (...) Composed of a set of small paintings, Mi Frida is more like a puzzle. In fact, each piece : dance, voice, singing, video projection, reading, testimony, light, music ... reflects a facet of this charismatic character. The interest of Frida Kahlo, to associate the macabre beauty, but also create extreme tensions between disability and intoxicating femininity is reflected accurately in this play. The sensual, intriguing and tortured artist is unveiled by Sascha Ley and Sylvia Camarda in a face to face with the pain, but also with herself and the audience (...) "Mi Frida" gives us a glimpse on this endless struggle with pain. (...) Without ever falling into caricature, Sascha Ley and Sylvia Camarda are able to translate the artist individual inner strength. A latent force that gradually comes to life, sparkling, then escaping with more or less violence, whether through a hesitant gait, spasms or larger and faster movements. Using the image of the duo as the two personalities becoming one and the same individual, Sascha Ley and Sylvia Camarda play on the duality of Frida Kahlo.
