With the recent premiere of the new show “Blind’s Cane“, Marionet held a conversation with people connected to science and theatre about the dramatisation of scientific themes.
Drawing on our company’s experience in this field as part of its Science in Theatre project, in which “Bengala dos Cegos” is its fourth production, we discussed the characteristics of this type of show and the attention it has received in recent years from the theatre, science and education sectors.
