New Keynote Speaker for Theatre about Science Conference

The fourth keynote speaker for the 2023 International Conference “Theatre about Science” is confirmed: Steve Abbott.

The American Steve Abbott, who participated in the first edition of this international conference, returns now as keynote speaker.

He’s a mathematics teacher in Vermont (USA) who, as he says, was “bewitched” by theatre 20 years ago when he was a consultant in the production of “Arcadia”, by Tom Stoppard (a play that you can find in our Documentation Centre on Performing Arts and Science). Since then he has devoted himself to watching, researching and directing plays about mathematics.

 

Next November 2023 he joins Catherine Courtet, Emma Weitkamp and Liliane Campos in an unmissable panel of speakers, in the second edition of the International Conference “Theatre about Science”.
