Felix Krull

About

Felix Krull is a con artist and a master of self-invention. For him, identity is not fixed but a stage. With charm, wit, and irresistible elegance, the son of a once-prosperous sparkling-wine family constantly reinvents himself, slipping into roles that win him admiration, desire, and profit. He observes high society with a keen eye and becomes whatever is expected of him. Between luxury and lies, hotel lobbies and back rooms, an intricate drama unfolds about disguising and hiding— and about the thrill of being someone else. Branko Janack’s staging with only three performers turns the audience into the great impostor’s direct counterpart: Who is seducing whom? Who is playing which role— and who is Felix Krull really? An evening full of esprit, irony, and a sheer delight in play is promised.
