About
A robot steps into Hamlet as this irreverent play questions acting, feeling and human replaceability.
The setup is immediately theatrical: shortly before Hamlet opens, its departing lead proposes a robot as his replacement. Aguijón Theater uses that comic disruption to examine creative labor, emotion and the fear of becoming expendable in an algorithmic world, making it one of the festival’s most pointed contemporary premises.
