A performance that takes place on Telegram to translate shitposting ( the derailing of a virtual discussion with inappropriate content) into dramaturgy. An improbable digital rewriting of Goldoni is staged within a chat room, created by the company to the tune of selfies, gifs and emoji. But a handful of hecklers bombard the group with memes created from the very images shared by the actors. Thus begins a hilarious, exhausting degeneration.
