Frida Kahlo and the Bravest Girl in the World

Kennedy-King College

Based on the historical events surrounding the execution of Anne Boleyn, Gaetano Donizetti’s tragedy, Anna Bolena, explores the psychological depth and intertwining fates of Anne Boleyn and Jane Seymour as they navigate the whims of the oppressive, murderous King Henry VIII. Notable for its melodic richness, dramatic intensity, and intricate and expressive vocal writing, Anna Bolena is the first in Donizetti’s trilogy of operas about Tudor queens. Malena Dayen, in her Resonance Works debut, directs this new production, inviting audiences into a multi-dimensional exploration of history and the human condition.
