JUST TWO DATES LEFT to catch LIPSTICK, an award-winning show at the Chain Theatre that is part of the 2026 New York City Fringe Festival.  Starring EDU DIAZ, this solo show with live music based on the story by Linda Morales Caballero explores identity, trauma, and visibility

Haunted by his mother’s reflection, a man fights to be seen while questioning his own existence. Blending live music, magical realism, and immersive theatre, LIPSTICK unfolds as a cathartic ritual that transforms vulnerability into spectacle.

Edu Díaz (co-writer of the stage adaptation, performer, and producer) is a multi-award-winning theatermaker and actor from the Canaries, based in New York. Creator of the acclaimed A Drag Is Born (winner of multiple awards) and the upcoming PETRUS, Edu shapes stories that blend magical realism with raw truth.

Linda Morales Caballero (original story and co-writer of the stage adaptation) is a Peruvian writer and poet whose work bridges the realms of the lyrical and the theatrical. Her storytelling explores femininity, memory, and transformation with visceral honesty. In LIPSTICK, her words become the heartbeat of a journey through desire, fear, and self-discovery.
