Ecdysis – The Snake sheds its Skin

Arjun Raina is a remarkable author and solo performer, who creates gripping stories about contemporary India and its development as part of our dynamic, globalized world.

However, his latest work is all about... Linz. But then Linz is a lot more Indian than you might think. ECDYSIS is a portrait of some of Linz‘s unseen citizens. It has been conceived on the basis of extensive research during two residencies in the city. The performances will be accompanied by some special events designed to offer further points of contact with Linz‘s Indian personality.
