A story about searching for someone else… and finding yourself

Bilder på barnastronauter och en gul måne. Texten Kako.

It all began with a message. Suddenly, it was just there—without a sender, without explanation. But one thing quickly became clear: it wasn’t created by any human. It was a cry for help from outer space.

Emotion researcher Brenda Gomez was brought in to interpret the alien language. She could sense that someone was in distress—but not understand why. No one on Earth recognized the language. Then she had an idea.

If anyone can pick up new languages and intuit what’s left unsaid, it’s children. Together with astronaut Elmer Bäck, she launched a top-secret mission: to bring the message to a specially selected group of children—in the hope that they could decipher it. But they had no idea what awaited them.

What began as a mysterious message became the start of a breathtaking journey—out into space and back again. A journey that would change both the children and the adults forever. A journey… to meet KaKo.

The performance is a collaboration between Nya Rampen and Unga Teatern.
