DSCHUNGEL WIEN: Focus on Art + Science
Zirkus des Wissens + Transitheart Productions
In a world where magic and the Earth's atmosphere are intertwined, a group of unusual heroes with mystical powers must face the devastating reality of environmental destruction.
The rider Paula and the football player Peter set out with Panini, the elf, on an adventurous journey to restore the balance of the world. A story invented, written, and illustrated by children for children. Directing and choreography turned this fairy tale with the dancers into an entertaining play. Students of the Academic Gymnasium as well as the Leonardo da Vinci School Linz contributed music and sounds.
The young authors and illustrators Lina Roth as well as Liivo and Ravel Safron (8–10 years old) were awarded the u10 Prix Ars Electronica 2024.
