Comedy for an actress by Thomas Rau Acted by Sylvia Bretschneider, directed by Alejandro Quintana
"Mona Lisa without a frame" is a comedy for an actress by Austrian author Thomas Rau. Mona Lisa loves her job. She loves catching the eyes of her viewers, holding them and enchanting them so that they forget everything else. When the gaze is finally released, her guest is a little richer than before. She is world-famous for this and many rave about her unfathomable smile. She loves to devote a lot of time to her guests. But the Louvre now has 7 million visitors a year. And they all want to see her smile or perhaps just capture it in a selfie. What used to be a sensual flirtation is now an encounter on an assembly line. Mona Lisa has had enough and steps out of her frame onto our stage. She finally takes the time she needs to really tell the other person about herself. And who knows what else will come out of such an encounter.
