GOOD VIBES ONLY (the great effort) transforms the everyday act of scrolling into a powerful metaphor for the present. On stage, a single body becomes the locus of a relentless accumulation of information, images, trends, and patterns dictated by constant digital interconnection. Viral dances, iconic fragments, and social content unfold in a continuous flow, creating a body-catalogue that absorbs and reflects the logic of dominant representation. The second chapter in a trilogy dedicated to scrolling, the show explores the ethical, political, and social implications of the twenty-first century.

Good Vibes Only is the title chosen for Playtime 2026/27, a project by Piemonte dal Vivo in collaboration with Stranaidea aimed at high schools. The show is the starting point for exploring adolescents' relationship with social media, particularly exposure, overstimulation, and the construction of their public presence online. [This second part should be inserted in smaller type.]
