SCIENCE IN THEATRE FESTIVAL is a 3-day event that pairs artists and playwrights with scientists, combining theatre with new technologies. It’s an opportunity for us to learn together and discuss how new technology can be applied to the post-COVID arts world and how we can reduce gender bias. In addition to the daily immersive science exhibitions, 3 science-based plays will be performed in the evenings.
