The Kaaitheater is exploring the notion of authenticity in their programme entitled “To Be or Not to Be Me”: how does autobiography relate to fiction, where is the border between sincerity and mendacity?

In Ophelia Comes to Brooklyn, Brussels artist Katja Dreyer attempts to reconstruct the turbulent life of her late aunt based on letters, poems, and testimonies. The result is a jigsaw puzzle of a biography that transports us from Germany in the 1950s to Russia and on to New York in the 1970s. But can you ever really get to know someone based on what they left behind?
