A tiny submarine inside the human body… what could possibly go wrong?
by GREEN GINGER in co-production with Nordland Visual Theatre

A tiny submarine travelling through the arteries…what could possibly go wrong?
In a not-too-distant future, people can buy personal cleaners called Intronauts; miniaturized human workers injected into their bodies to carry out essential maintenance.

Green Ginger’s Intronauts propels audiences into a microscopic journey deep within a human being; an adventure story complete with big screens, tiny buttons and body parts. The show takes its cue from classic sci-fi movies and deals with such diverse topics as nano-technology, self-care and isolation in an increasingly ‘connected’ world.

Fuelled by physical comedy and innovative puppetry, Intronauts offers an intoxicating inner body experience that really gets under the skin…

INTRONAUTS is an hour-long, absurd and highly visual performance with puppetry, physical comedy, original music and integrated animated projection. Three performers introduce audiences to a bizarre dystopian future, with a scenographic approach employing a range of innovative puppetry, lighting and projection solutions allowing Green Ginger to create a cinematic feel; wide shots to establish micro-worlds, rapidly followed by close-up action using animated sets and multi-operator puppetry, all brought to life by experienced manipulators.
