Can finding the right words save the world?
On 8 May 2021, a group of science communicators and actors are taking to the stage at the Australian Academy of Science’s heritage listed Shine Dome.
Join a unique interactive theatre performance to experience an intriguing alternate world where science just might save humanity, or destroy it, depending on how it is used. The performance will follow a Forum Theatre format, where the audience's words shape what will happen on stage.
