Adaptations include orchestral reductions (The Clever One by Carl Orff (17 Players), The Perfect American by Philip Glass), the creation of new stories within works (Maria de Buenos Aires), revised or new stories (Winterreise, The Fairy Queen, The Diary of Anne Frank), and new reduced stage versions (Macbeth by Ernest Bloch - 110 minute one act for 7 singers, Medea by Luigi Cherubini - 95 minute one act for 7 singers).
The drama is at its best when the direction by Andreas Mitisek focuses on the emotional/artistic conflicts that ebbed, flowed and overflowed throughout Kahlo’s marriage, divorce and remarriage to Rivera.
