RobotGuest performance, length 60 min

In the future, robots coexisted with human beings. The world moved on and the robots did their job helping people, until they began to think for themselves. The government was not happy with this, and ordered to lock up and destroy all the robots on the planet. And so the robots were almost extinct. Almost.

One day, Clara, a girl in a wheelchair, goes a long way from her home and arrives at a concentration camp. There she meets a robot. Probably the last robot on planet Earth. This is how they start a deep friendship based on silence and understanding. But something terrible happened and they were separated. 70 years later the robot awakens and begins the search for Clara, in a world that has changed, and where intolerance of difference reigns.

Robot is a show made mostly with recycling. As is usual in David Zuazola's works, the mechanisms, sets and curious characters inhabit a different and special world, far from conventionalisms with powerful stories full of humanity. Robot is a special show, since it is a Chilean-Polish co-production that has joined David Zuazola (Santiago de Chile) and Unia Teatr Niemozliwy (Warsaw). It represents a shared artistic vision of the world we inhabit; an intolerant and often unfair world. After 18 months of work in Poland, a show full of details has been born, with a deep artistic sense that tells a story that is repeated through the centuries. It is a powerful work, and it truly portrays a reality that we live in, a world where people seem disposable.
