In the fluorescent glow of a conference hall, two PhD souls collide – entwined by love, yet divided by rival labs. Will their love spark a groundbreaking tardigrade gene discovery worthy of a Nobel Prize, or will it fade into obscurity, lost in the ruthless tides of academic rivalry? The Awesome Potatoes from Uni-Heidelberg (Germany) invite you to a whimsical science-theatre spectacle, inspired by real events straight out of their research labs.
