Yes, exactly… The internet has changed our lives and given us everything: knowledge, entertainment, platforms for self-expression – and websites definitely only for over 18s. And in return, it has taken from us… everything. Our attention span? Gone. Our privacy? Deleted. Our ability for intelligent political discussion? Well, that was always optional anyway. In Digital Daddy, comedian Benjamin Delahaye dives deep into our collective digital addiction. From the grand promises of the first modem connections to the chaotic madness of the social media era, he dissects the absurdity of a world in which technology was supposed to bring us closer – yet has left us more isolated than ever before. Is life really better today? Funny and sharp – this evening is for everyone who's ever thought: "I really should go offline… right after this one last video." Language: Standard German, or what Benjamin considers it to be. About Benjamin Delahaye Born in France and now based in Zurich, Benjamin Delahaye has made a name for himself in the Swiss stand-up scene. His pointed humour has already been featured on SRF3 Comedy Zmorge and in the streaming show Stand Up! on OnePlus. He has made audiences laugh as support for Thomas Wiesel, Alexandre Kominek and Joël von Mutzenbecher and was a finalist in the 2021 Olten Cabaret Casting. Digital Daddy is his second solo show.
