There's sand everywhere, isn't there? In fact, sand is slowly becoming scarce because so many houses are built from it. Our theater is also made from 1400 tons of sand. Time to do a piece about sand and take a closer look: Have you ever looked at sand through a microscope and seen the tiny tardigrades that live on the grains of sand? Did you know that the lens of the microscope is also made of sand? And what would happen if even the Sandman ran out of sand?

To match the performance, "The Experimental Sandpit" is available in our stores: a box full of tools and ideas for experimenting in the sandpit - with sandpaper, magnifying glass, concrete mix, real gemstones, hourglass kit, booklet and much more.

Development: Sibylle Peters, Hanno Krieg, Weloba Mtaki | Set design: Hanno Krieg | Performance: Hanno Krieg, Sibylle Peters, Brenda Alaìs | Materials science advice: Zoe Laughlin, Institute of Making | Lighting: Brenda Alaís, Nicolas Wolf | Music: Ansuman Biswas

In collaboration with Lois Keidan and students from Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences and Queen Mary University London.

Supported by the Jupiter – Performing Arts for Young Audiences program of the Federal Cultural Foundation. Supported by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media
