Inspired by the Jim Henson cult classic The Dark Crystal about an ailing planet and a divided race, UniVerse: A Dark Crystal Odyssey depicts an earth riven by extremes and urgently in need of healing. Breathtaking digital environments and cutting-edge costumes create a stunning blend of fantasy and documentary. Powerful choreography and spoken word explore the inseparability of humanity and nature. Performed by the extraordinary dancers of Company Wayne McGregor, this is a modern eco-myth that asks how we can come together to be whole again.
