Sydney Opera House presents
Moss Piglet

27 Sep 2025 to 28 Sep 2025

Playful and thrilling, Moss Piglet is an epic new work for families about how even the tiniest of things can be the strongest. Prepare to embark on an extraordinary journey through the microscopic world of the tardigrade… perhaps you’ve heard of them?

Small but mighty, they have withstood multiple extinction periods, survived boiling temperatures and even the vacuum of space. With a surprising cult following, some people call them ‘Water Bears’, others call them ‘Moss Piglets’.

An explosive portrait of the world’s most resilient and curious critters. Taking young audiences from jelly-filled petri dishes to the depths of a volcano to Arctic glaciers to the moon, Moss Piglet explodes the mysteries of the wildly weird tardigrade.

Featuring wicked puppetry, choreography, live video and green screen technology, this is an epic ride of microscopic proportions.
