'I took my tears and turned them into paintings'
In the electric calm of a blue-painted room, a dying woman reassembles the images of an extraordinary life. The woman is Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. The life is one of struggle - with love, with the body, with her country, and most of all, with her art. La Casa Azul is a collaboration between Quebeçois playwright Sophie Faucher, who also played Frida Kahlo in this production, and internationally acclaimed director Robert Lepage.Sophie Faucher graduated from Montreal's Conservatoire d'Art Dramatique and immediately began working in theatre, cinema, television and radio. She has performed in more than thirty productions. La Casa Azul is her first stage play.
