The play takes place one of the galleries in the Art Gallery of Ontario, during the current run of the Gallery’s exhibition, Frida & Diego: Passion, Politics and Painting.
Characters in the play:
Two middle-aged women who are seeing the exhibition together and, as the play opens, are both gazing intently at one of Frida Kahlo’s self-portraits.
WOMAN 1 (with great conviction, bordering on indignation): She wasn’t a Communist!
WOMAN 2: (quick to agree): Why would she be a Communist?
(curtain)
