CAPE TOWN - STAR THEATRE (HCC) - 11 - 14 DECEMBER 2025
After successful runs in Johannesburg thrilling thousands and more than 30 sold out shows, Hidden Giants - the extraordinary live show that fuses science, storytelling, and music - is finally coming to Cape Town. From 11–14 December 2025, audiences at The Star Theatre, Homecoming Centre, will be transported across galaxies in an immersive journey through space, sound, and human curiosity.
Hidden Giants is a cinematic stage experience that explores one of the most profound mysteries of our cosmos - black holes - through breathtaking visuals, original live music, and storytelling that makes even the most complex science beautiful and accessible.
Using the world’s first image of a black hole as its starting point, the show reveals just how extraordinary these cosmic giants are - and how human innovation made it possible to “see the unseeable.”
We use the image of the first ever black hole as the backdrop to explore in various ways how incredible black holes really are. We also show how humans were not just able to conceive of these objects, but also build incredibly complex devices that allowed us to “see the unseeable”.
It is a story of what is possible when we fully explore the thoughts and ideas that seem to never let us go.
An exploration of the greatest unsolved paradox in science, and how resolving it would radically change our description of our reality. We look at how our theories of the large (gravity) and small (quantum mechanics) are in conflict. They are our most successful theories of all time, but simply cannot coexist.
