Calderwood Pavilion, 527 Tremont Street

January 15 – January 17 2027

An intimate and political account of an actress who, paradoxically, has spent much of her life hiding.

How do you disappear from view when you’ve trained to be in the spotlight? Alone on stage, Anne Jeanvoine gives a raw, intimate, and political account of an actress who, paradoxically, has spent much of her life hiding. She shares her professional journey, which echoes her path as a woman, caught between visibility and erasure. She examines identity at large, her own identity as a gay woman in particular, and the prevailing cultural and social norms in France.

“Damn well written, funny, and moving, this one-woman show sweeps through all of life’s big questions with an authenticity so vibrant that it infects the entire audience. Three stars!” — Télérama

Performed in French with English captions. More at www.frenchtheaterproject.com
