FRIDA
A New Musical Book by Georgina Escobar Music by Jaime Lozano Lyrics by Neena Beber |
Frida Kahlo has been painted, printed, performed, and commodified—but rarely has she been heard. This new musical breaks through the mythology to reveal the woman in her own words: raw, rebellious, and resoundingly human.
Inspired by Frida’s personal diaries, letters, and rarely explored family narratives--Frida Íntima by Isolda Kahlo and Círculo de los Afectos by Luis-Martín Lozano--Frida is a fearless exploration of identity, sisterhood, pain, and the defiant act of creating through it all. With a score by Jaime Lozano that fuses traditional Mexican rhythms with contemporary musical theatre, lyrics by Neena Beber, and book by Georgina Escobar, this piece is more than a biography—it’s a ritual. A celebration. A challenge. This is not the Frida from gift shop souvenirs. This is Frida as you’ve never seen her—fierce, funny, fractured, and fully alive. Una carta de amor a México, a la hermandad, y a la solidaridad con las mujeres del mundo. |

New York, NY September 2025 A musical inspired by the stories of women from the borderlands, specifically, those who have disappeared. From the missing, to the socially invisible, to the forgotten, and the ones lost in their past, Desaparecidas takes place in a classic and timeless Mexican state fair (a Palenque) where the audience experiences the "appearance" of the stories and women as summoned by our narrator: the famous (and deceased) Mexican singer Jenni Rivera.

Book and Lyrics by Georgina Escobar 
|
Adelita is a curious and clumsy teenage duende (elf) eager to find what lies beyond the horizon and an outsider in her mythological land of Elflán. When the evil spirit of La Mancha kidnaps her mother and destroys her home, Adelita is forced to travel north in the company of a God of the Yesteryear toward the land of the Hadaseñas. But when she crosses a wall made of human remains, she realizes that the North, and her entire existence, is not at all what she'd imagined. A dark adult musical fairytale about the myths we create around grief and the terrible things that hide behind the illusion of dreams, Little Duende explores the border crisis, dual citizenship, and the responsibility of all of us who have the gift of "freedom."
