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.
