Tiny, ridiculously tough creatures you can barely see with the naked eye. Known to some as water bears and to others as moss piglets, tardigrades have an impressive résumé: they've survived mass extinctions, boiling temperatures and the vacuum of space, and somehow developed a devoted cult following along the way.

The show takes young audiences on a curious ride from jelly-filled petri dishes to the guts of a volcano, across Arctic glaciers and even out to the moon, all in pursuit of what makes these micro-heroes so indestructible and oddly charming. Expect a playful, slightly weird exploration of the mysteries of the tardigrade.
