Herbert Siguenza at MASArte Gallery

Media Arts Santa Ana (MASA) is excited to partner with acclaimed theatre artist and playwright HERBERT SIGÜENZA to present a FREE workshop performance of his new solo piece, DIEGO RIVERA: HIS STORY on THURSDAY, APRIL 30 at our TVGB Digital Maker Space, located at 1666 N Main St in Santa Ana! The performance is free and seating is limited. Q&A with Herbert and director SAM WOODHOUSE after the performance. Please RSVP to victor@masamedia.org for tickets! You won't want to miss this!

DIEGO RIVERA: HIS STORY is an evocative one-person show that delves into the extraordinary life of Diego Rivera through his art and relationships with women and patrons. Set in the aftermath of the funeral of his iconic wife, Frida Kahlo, Rivera returns to his studio, grappling with grief, confusion, and a looming sense of mortality. In his solitude, Rivera is visited by Cantinflas, a charismatic figure embodying Mexican consciousness and the common man. Through a compelling blend of visuals and music, Rivera recounts his vibrant journey through art, politics, and his complex relationships.

The play offers an intimate look at a revolutionary artist whose mural movement elevated Mexico on the global stage, and explores his tumultuous yet inspiring relationship with Frida Kahlo. DIEGO RIVERA: HIS STORY is a tribute to one of Mexico’s most influential visual artists of the 20th century, brought to life by the acclaimed actor, playwright, and visual artist Herbert Siguenza of the Chicano group Culture Clash.

DIEGO RIVERA: HIS STORY is co-written by Carlos Morton and Herbert Sigüenza and Directed by Sam Woodhouse. For more information, email victor@masamedia.org or visit www.masamedia.org!
