Join us as we interview the adventurous and charismatic Daniela Mack, who will be portraying Frida Kahlo in our production of “El último sueño de Frida y Diego.” Mack has previously portrayed the artist in San Francisco; watch as she describes her favorite moment from the opera and her feelings when she first donned the Frida costume.

Meet the Frida y Diego Cast: Daniela Mack

Mexico’s most iconic artists (and infamously stormy lovers) leap off the canvas in this new musical portrait from Grammy Award-winning composer Gabriela Lena Frank and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Nilo Cruz. When a desperate wish on Day of the Dead reunites Diego Rivera with his wife Frida Kahlo, he jumps at the chance to seek forgiveness. But Frida refuses to return to the world that caused her so much pain, until another departed soul inspires her to look back at the art (and the man) she once loved.

Resident Conductor Lina González-Granados commands a cast packed with international talent, including Daniela Mack, Alfredo Daza and Ana María Martínez in this tribute to one of the most pivotal romances in history. The artists‘ own emblematic paintings merge with a folklore-inspired score to breathe new life into the love-hate saga of Frida and Diego.
