This is a picture of a person I don’t know is a multidisciplinary solo performance about the concept of loneliness and the idea of nostalgia as a way to escape from it.

Considering the phenomena of musicals as part of the collective memory and as part of the performer’s own history, some known musicals scenes from “A chorus line” or “Singing in the rain” are taken as narrative tools to expose the performer’s most personal conflicts.
Mixing existing musicals video material with footage recorded with a small video camera, “this is a picture of a person I don’t know” proposes a complex structure of time and memory that allows the audience to travel through their own history as well as trough the history of the piece itself. The spectator is addressed directly and is conceived as another character in a very close relation with the performer.
