A comedy set in Penge is set to return to its natural habitat after a well-received opening in Islington.

The Frida Kahlo of Penge West is  two-woman play about one woman’s struggle to stage a one-woman drama about Frida Kahlo, with two women in it.

It is written and directed by south Londoner Chris Larner and stars Cecily Nash and Olivia Scott-Taylor, who has recently finished filming for Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron.

The story revolves around a woman who lets an old university friend – a vain out-of-work actor – sleep on her sofa. The actor decides to put on a play of her own, dragging her friend into a supporting role, or eight.

The show comes with a warning: its dodgy Mexican accents are contagious.

The Frida Kahlo of Penge West is at the Bridge House Theatre in Penge High Street from November 4 to 23. Tickets cost £10 or £14. Go to bhtheatre.co.uk or call 020 81330311.
