Iconic French actress Isabelle Adjani makes her long-awaited New York theatrical debut on the FIAF stage with Morgan Lloyd Sicard and Frédéric Pierrot in a riveting cross-media adaption of John Cassavetes’ Opening Night.
The not-to-be-missed launch of Crossing the Line 2019 is directed by Cyril Teste, recognized as one of France’s most exciting new voices for his signature performance-filmique technique.
In her first major return to the stage, Adjani portrays a famous actress confronting age in a brave performance that mirrors her own life. Teste creates a powerful experiment where he changes stage directions every night to dig deeper into Cassavetes’ brilliant screenplay and the actors are challenged with each performance.
