BLAUE FRAU DO PAUL AUSTER
WHEN: 20.11.2013 (World premiere)
WHERE: Pop Up Art House at Diana-stage & Mad House festival 2013-2014.
WHO: Sonja Ahlfors, Ludvig Allén, Tatu Hämäläinen, Iida Kuningas, Tora von Platen, Alexander Salvesen, Erik Söderblom, Joanna Wingren, Meri Ekola, Sven Haraldsson, Yasmine Harkimo-Lagerström, Johan Isaksson, Sanna Pietilä, Heli Hakala, Paul Auster.
WHAT: Blaue Frau obtained the rights to dramatize Paul Auster’s book “City of Glass”. The group empl the director Erik Söderblom, who after many “ifs” and “buts” dropped out from the project. Tatu Hämäläinen took over directing and together the working group created an autofiction that started with Söderblom’s exit and played with massive conspiracy theories. In the performance “Blaue Frau Do Paul Auster” we wiped away the borders between the fiction and the truth and between the writers and fictitious characters.
