Microscopic. Indestructible. Tiny, but tough.
World Science Festival Brisbane presents a Windmill Production Company production
Tardigrades… perhaps you’ve heard of them? Small but mighty, they have withstood multiple extinction periods, survived boiling temperatures and even the vacuum of space. With a surprising cult following, some people call them ‘Water Bears’, others call them ‘Moss Piglets’.
Moss Piglet is an explosive portrait of the world’s most resilient and curious critters. Taking kids from jelly-filled petri dishes to the depths of a volcano to Arctic glaciers and the moon, the work explodes the mysteries of the wildly, weird tardigrade.
Playful and thrilling, Moss Piglet is an epic new work about how even the tiniest of things can be the strongest.
Presented in association with Queensland Performing Arts Centre
