The hyperinteractive performance Robinson uses Defoe’s hero as a metaphor: the stage is the desert island, Robinson is the actor who tries to cross the oceans that separate him from the spectator. He builds his bridge with the audience with the help of a list of fifty scenes different in content and genre, from which the spectators choose those they would like to see. Thus the spectators are the ones who by their decisions structure a unique dramaturgy of the performance and co-create it with their active participation. We are all Robinsons.
