Visages

In Visages, director Alexia Bürger explores identity and perception through the story of a Polish man who bears an uncanny resemblance to Vladimir Putin while supporting the Ukrainian cause. Confronted daily with the face of someone widely viewed as an adversary, he questions the relationship between appearance and selfhood.
Premiering at the National Arts Centre, this choral theatrical work examines unexpected human connections and the fragile boundaries between individuals shaped by global conflict. Bürger crafts a thought-provoking production that turns the idea of identity inside out.
