The artist Sarah Pucill, whose film Magic Mirror reproduces the gender-blurring self-portraits of French Surrealist artist Claude Cahun; Jérôme Hamon, the first person to undergo two face transplant operations due to a hereditary disease; and the neuroscientist Jill Bolte Taylor, who was compelled to reinvent herself after a stroke. Based on his interviews with these three extraordinary interlocutors, the author, director and film-maker Marcus Lindeen created L’Aventure invisible, a piece as disturbing as it is revealing; it is his first theatre work to be presented in Vienna. Sitting in a small audience arena, three performers invite the audience to consider biographical identities as transitions, upheavals and new beginnings. Or as Claude Cahun put it: ‘Beneath this mask, yet another mask. I’ll never finish removing all these faces.’ The Invisible Adventure guides its audience towards dizzying contexts, inciting each of us to think of the self as a plurality.
