Just a moment ago we watched the superheroes boasting about their superpowers on their home planet, now they are standing in front of us - completely perplexed and a little abashed..Entering the earth’s atmosphere they seem to have lost each and every one of their special abilities. It’s a good thing that they can expand their team with all of the children in the audience to help them embark on a curious search for new superpowers. This journey turns out to be quite turbulent as it is not always easy to assess individual strengths and use them wisely.

Our performance is followed by a 40-minute workshop in which the children explore their own individual strengths based on the storyline of the superheroes. At an age when the pressure to perform is increasing steadily for the children, they are guided through this workshop to  think about their personal talents and special abilities. Their creativity is not bound to the limitations of reality as we find superheroes within our bodies and personalities.
