The musical to rename a loss
Marc Artigau i Queralt He is a multifaceted playwright. Write adult text plays (Last F ** King Night, Caim and Abel, Dawn or the garden of delights…), adaptations of classics (Her seagull, All three sisters, To our taste…), translations and adaptations of musicals (Singing Bajo the lluvia, The magical of orz, The little prince…) And dramaturgies for family theater (Moby Dick, a theater trip). In addition, it combines its stage facet with the publication of stories, novels and collections of poetry. An off -road profile that Ingenu project He has signed to write his new show: You will arrive and it will be at night. A musical, which can be seen until April 13 in the Atrium Room, directed by Marc Chornetwith music from Neus Pàmies and Gerard Marsaland starring in Neus Pàmies, Paula Jornet, Isabel Soriano and Toni Guillemat.
Technology advances and makes us question the limits of what is human. Artificial intelligence is now natural. Ask an internet chat how to cook a fricandó, ask for love advice, or insist for you to improve an email are our daily bread. But with the tools that circulate on the network, could we simulate a person? Is it ethical to reconstruct an identity from the digital footprint of someone who has left us? With these reflections near the bedside table, we enter the universe that Artigau and Ingenu Project have imagined.
A musical with immersive sound
The playwright explains that the Atrium and Project Ingenu are looking for it to build the text of an idea that had been around for a long time: to make a musical with immersive sound that speaks of mourning and how to face it with the help of technology. Artigau claims to have worked “with a lot of freedom, sharing the material from the music band with Neus Pàmies and Gerard Marsal and with the most textual band with Marc Chornet”. Despite being an order, the choice of Marc Artigau is especially appropriate, as the playwright had worked on the boundaries that human Dawn or the garden of delightswith the love story between a person and a robot.
It is now considering whether it is possible to compensate for the void of a loved person building a triple identity, based on the digital footprint we leave. It is interesting to see how our grandparents will have almost no digital footprint: recordings, photographs, texts, messages. This is unthinkable for current generations. Who else who has the least has a profile where, supposedly, we can see who he is. Despite a reality that is still far away, Marc Artigau jokes saying that this is a “dystopian next week” work, because although it may seem impossible, there are already similar cases. And obviously Black Mirror He has dedicated a chapter for years.
You will arrive and it will be at night It predicts to be one of the small pearls of the season, especially for naive project lovers. We combine the theater and that the sound makes us beat together. We rebuild the beat of the one who is no longer there to feel accompanied. And that the darkness of the night, like the darkness of the theater, arrives and embraces us.
