Phantom_
of Normality

By Saara Turunen (Finland)
Directed by Sebastián Kalt (Argentina)

What does it mean to be normal? Saara Turunen’s The Phantom of Normality explores that prevailing, cruel, hostil but also seductive North. It creates a comically taciturn Finland, inhabited by a crowd of nonsense characters seeking for that intransigent fiction.
Inspired by Luis Buñuel’s film The Phantom of Liberty, this Image theatre play proposes a surreal meditation on the construction of “normality” at the expense of diversity.
After all, who hasn’t been stalked by the Phantom of Normality?
