Once known for her stylized portraits of the wealthy and famous, a musical about the life of Polish Art Deco painter, Lempicka, has secured three nominations since premiering on Broadway early last month. Written by Carson Kreitzer and Matt Gould, the show follows Tamara de Lempicka as she flees the Russian Revolution to Paris with her husband, Tadeusz, and their daughter, Kizette. When Tadeusz is unable to find suitable work despite having been a prominent lawyer in Saint Petersburg, Tamara takes up painting to support her family. The actress who portrays Tamara, Eden Espinosa, has been nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical, while the actress who plays her secret lover Rafaela, Amber Iman, has been nominated for Best Actress in a Featured Role.
