Ona Beneït

What does the future have in store for us as a species? The performer and creator of this show, a reflection on technology and how it affects our lives, thought about this while she was looking at her mobile phone.

Would you like to take a look at Ona’s telephone? You won’t have to make too much of an effort, because you will see the screen projected right from the beginning of the show, when you will surprise the actress playing one of those addictive games that have wasted so much of your time. Because yes, this show is about Ona, but also about her entire species. She explains this in a monologue that goes on while she receives whatsapps, looks at her Facebook page or consults a request from that dating app… Yes, the anonymity of a nick or an avatar, the neutrality of a screen, have gradually cooled down our personal relationships, and Twitter or Facebook have ended up as the scene of a drama, the drama of our loneliness, understood not as a place of self-knowledge but as a social pathology. What is to become of a species that has succumbed in this way to technology without even stopping to think about how it is changing us?

The show was created by Ona Beneït, a young woman who has recently graduated from the Balearic Islands Higher School of Dramatic Art. In order to craft the show, she has worked with the playwright Joan Tomàs Martínez, a poet and a founding member of Corcada Teatre, and the director and actor Joan Fullana, also a founding member of Corcada Teatre, who has directed the performance.
