Bouvetøya: The Need for an Island is a play written by Ivan Benet, Cristina Genebat, Julio Manrique, and Sergi Pompermayer. Conceived during the 2020 lockdown, the work presents a dystopia centered on a group of friends who embark on a journey to the most remote point on the planet. Directed by Julio Manrique, the play examines isolation and the search for refuge amidst constant hyperconnectivity. The text explores the friction between the desire to escape and the reality of personal ties.

The Planns tip

The play was born from the 2020 lockdown, a fitting context to follow this story about voluntary reclusion in the most isolated place on earth.
