If you are in NYC in June there is a play Off-Broadway On Tina Modotti:

Art historians have called Tina Modotti “the best unknown photographer of the 20th century”. She chose the road less traveled by time and time again, pursuing photography as a female immigrant and passionately devoting herself to communism amidst overwhelming and unforgiving conservative norms. She saw the world through brilliant shades and striking contrasts, loving and fighting fervently for many passions. Her work reveres the livelihood of Mexico’s commoners, capturing her hopes for political change. Learning Modotti’s story is perhaps the only way to understand the vision that fueled her extraordinary and turbulent life. A must-see for art buffs everywhere.

PASCAL PRODUCTIONS is pleased to announce the world premiere production of MODOTTI, written and directed by Wendy Beckett (Off-Broadway’s Anais Nin: One of Her Lives). MODOTTI will play a four-week limited engagement at Off-Broadway’s Acorn Theatre (410 West 42nd Street). Performances begin Wednesday, June 9 at 8 p.m. and continue through Saturday, July 3 at 8 p.m. Opening Night is Friday, June 11 (8 p.m.).
