Criptonite:
bioluminescence

Premiere: July 2025, Tanzhaus Zurich

Things are rising from the earth. They are glowing. In the post-apocalypse, four disabled people connect and create a lush soundscape with using their essential tools. With the help of Memory, they invoke cast spells to honour their disabled ancestors and transform the world around them. Leave your assumptions about resilience at the door: No need to drink your own pee! With humour, pop music, and Patricia the blanket turtle, Criptonite reclaim survival.
