The snake will be shedding its skin one more time! Due to popular demand, Linz09 has added an additional performance of Arjun Raina’s poetic and humorous play to conclude Linz09’s Theater Mania1: Snowstorm festival.

There’s clearly more of India to be found in Linz that one would suspect. The world premiere of Ecdysis – The Snake Sheds Its Skin was on February 16. All performances to date have been sold out. The captivating charisma, authenticity and witty performance artistry of this exceptional Indian author, director and raconteur have absolutely captivated theatergoers in Linz.
There’ll be one additional performance on Friday, February 20th at 9:30 PM in Hafenhalle09. “The great popular response to this play is really gratifying, and an excellent reason to put off the end of the festival—at least for a couple of hours,” Airan Berg, Linz09’s director of the performing arts, noted with justifiable pride. To make reservations, call the ticket hotline at 0664 82 83 860. But hurry!
And with a bit of luck, four theater fans can even attend for free. Linz09 is holding a drawing for two pairs of tickets to the final performance of “Ecdysis.” Send an e-mail by 12 noon Friday, February 20 with “Ecdysis” in the subject line and containing your name, address and telephone number to gewinnspiel@linz09.at! Winners will be notified by phone by 2 PM.
