Microtheater
Using high-quality microscopes and video cameras, tiny living organisms are projected onto a large cinema screen.
The main actors in our movie are the living animals and plants themselves. Experienced biologists are on hand to explain and comment on their sometimes surprising behavior. More direct and emotional than even the best natural history documentaries, this live show introduces viewers to the secrets of the fascinating micro-world that is all around us.
