CHANNELING FRIDA: Matthew Posey’s latest creation for Ochre House is Ex Voto: The Immaculate Conceptions of Frida Kahlo, which celebrates the creative life of the Mexican painter. And the results have the reviewers split. On the thumbs up side is Mark Lowry. “The storytelling is oddly normal. And while using that word to describe something from the creatively adventurous Posey might not sound exciting, in many ways, it is,” he writes in his theaterjones.com review. But Alexandra Bonifield was non-plussed. “Instead of transporting the audience inside the unusual world of this dynamic, tortured, impassioned, explosively creative woman, exploring the waxing and waning of her physical and emotional pain as the driving source of her artistic output, Posey created her as a flat, stereotyped object,” she writes on criticalrant.com. Judge for yourself through Saturday.
