For the creation of the play 'La Torera', its author, Carmen Elena Jijón, collects fragments of Anita Bermeo's life to reconstruct the main character of the play. The proposal is articulated, together with the collective imagination, with press articles and multiple creations by artists from the Republic of Ecuador, becoming part of a transmedial biography of 'La Torera' that goes beyond the entire work and it circumscribes in an even broader transfictional universe. In this context, the present article manages to demonstrate a parallelism between the figure of 'La Torera' with the artist Frida Kahlo, placing both Latin American women in the performance field as pioneers in their different environments. In this way, Anita Bermeo's legacy as an artist is finally rescued, taking her character beyond the cliche and social prejudices of that time in Quito-Ecuador, which overshadowed her creation.
