Music Poetry Storytelling

with Louise Coigley

Honouring the centenary of Frida Kahlo’s accident 17 September 1925

Storyteller, speech & language therapist and spinal injury survivor Louise weaves her own fractured journey into a powerful and poetic narrative of perseverance and healing. Born with clubfeet, as a child Louise develops scoliosis.

After years of treatment for her legs & feet and back, being stretched, moulded, winched and strapped, then undergoing spinal surgery, Louise emerges out of the cocoon of a spinning bed. Years later, in extreme pain, she encounters Frida Kahlo’s paintings, learns about her life, her loves. Louise finds recognition and a new way to navigate pain: through creativity. With humour and humanity, tales from these two women’s lives interweave.

Accompanied by Olivier nominated actress Melody Grove and Aly Macrae, actor & musician of stage and screen, “Back to Back” unfolds with poignant, uplifting singing & music. Melody also speaks “From the Frocks”- a powerful new prose poem by Louise.

If Sculpture is waiting to be released into Eurythmy, what is Architecture longing to become?  In the lecture Rudolf Steiner gave on the Mission of the Arts (GA 275), he described the transformation of the plastic-spatial arts, but left the seventh enigmatically unidentified.  This is directly connected to the courage we are enjoined to have for the uncertain future that we can take responsibility for in the transformation of the 'architecture' of the social, economic, pedagogical, professional, and other structures that manifestly no longer serve our becoming human.
