The play, COLOR OF LIGHT, explores how Matisse came to create what he called his masterpiece – the design and building of Chapelle du Rosaire in Vence, France. The simple love that develops between a country-girl nursing student and the legendary artist becomes the driving force behind his final and perhaps greatest work.
The depth of their intimate friendship raises questions of art and religion, love and mortality, all brushed in the hues, tints and shades of Matisse’s colorful pallet.
