Microworlds

performance for viewers aged 7-14

Man is a universe inhabited by countless numbers of very small organisms that make up our microbiota. In order to study these organisms, they need to be properly magnified - this is what magnifying glasses and microscopes are used for. There is also the exact opposite way - here, however, a suitably mad scientist is needed. Fortunately, there is no shortage of such scientists in MLPK*.

What if we were to shrink down to the size of bacteria and try to study them in their natural environment — in our gut? We invite you to a scientific, philosophical and adventure show, in which docent Quince undertakes a heroic journey into the interior of Hegel.
