Award-winning interactive theatre exploring the dilemmas of science communication
Sat 28 May – 11am & 7pm Book your free ticket now!
An award-winning interactive theatre performance exploring the dilemmas of science communication.
When an obscure scientific paper reveals a potential link between a factory in a small town and a toxic chemical, how does a science communicator balance the need for truth against the risk of panic?
Performed by a mix of professional actors and science communicators, Chemical ReACTion will entertain and provoke thoughts.
Originally produced for the Australian Academy of Science, commissioned by the Falling Walls Foundation in Berlin. Chemical ReACTion is brought you by Rebus Theatre and Questacon.
