LIBERTY — Saturday, November 1st, at 7PM, the Liberty Museum & Arts Center will present CALLE ALLENDE, an adult puppet theater show, inspired by  Frida Kahlo. The show is directed, created, designed and performed by Anatar M. Gagne, an award-winning puppeteer and actor.

Shackled by restraints of reality, Frida finds herself unable to paint. In a moment of desperation, she re-discovers her life source- the other Frida. “Calle Allende” is inspired by an entry in Frida Kahlo’s Diary “The Two Fridas.” Calle Allende,” a puppet theatre production, brings to life Frida’s struggle to reconcile her broken self and dying inspiration. Frida’s pain has clouded her, but in a moment of clarity soon realizes that without her imagination, she will lose her lifeline.

Anatar Gagne, originally from Caracas, Venezuela,  holds a MFA in Puppet Arts from the University of Connecticut, and a BA in English/ Creative Writing from Hunter College. Her strong background in art, dance, writing, fiber and fabrication all come together seamlessly with her love for puppetry. 

Due to the adult subject matter, the show is recommended for adults and children over 14. Tickets are $20 for adults, $10 for students and $15 for museum members.

The Liberty Museum & Arts Center is located at 46 South Main Street in Liberty, across from the Liberty Theater. For more information call (845) 807-6055 or go to www.libertymuseumandartscenter.org.   Tickets may be purhased online or at the door.
