World premiere

The last drop of crude oil has been used up. A geologist who performs as a bodybuilder on the side has been assigned the task of finding the next big energy source for the future. While researching a mysterious pit, the geologist dares to plumb its depths from one layer to the next until she finally meets a depressed oracle at Earth's core, who lists a series of grim prophecies. This is a meeting that will change everything.

Poetic science fiction, impressive linguistic force. Sarah Calörtscher's gripping new type of digital storytelling gave her one of the most renowned prizes in the dramatic arts. Her second work, Drill Baby Drill, was commissioned by Staatstheater Nürnberg and is a reflection on that which we leave behind and what new, unknown future scenarios await us.

"Drill Baby Drill" is sponsored by HUMANSTARSapp.
