✨ Real blues, a few feet from the stage, to close the festival.

A play that drops you inside a digital nightmare: intimate images shared without consent and everything that follows. 🎭📱

Written and performed by Elena Santiago, directed by Irina Robles, produced by Nua Teatre and Vania Produccions.

🎭 NUA° IMMERSIVE THEATRE

📅 Sunday 6 December 2026

🕐 6 pm

📍 Nou Espai Escènic Bastió de Sant Ferran (Bullring), Alcúdia

🎟️ €5 · Running time: 50 minutes

📖 The play

NUA° is an immersive piece that plunges the audience into the harsh reality of revenge porn, which sets off a spiral of public humiliation and widespread cyberbullying.

It explores the deep psychological impact of these attacks, the complicity of bystanders, the social issues around them, online privacy, the role of artificial intelligence and the importance of consent in the digital world.

Performer: Elena Santiago, in a solo show that puts the audience at the centre of the story.

🏛️ Track record

A production from Andorra selected by the Xarxa Alcover, the performing arts circuit linking the Balearic Islands, Catalonia, Valencia and Andorra.
