You can never have too many books about theatre and science!

Our Performing Arts and Science Documentation Centre has been getting fuller and fuller. Since the last time we announced new acquisitions here, we’ve added another 17 entries to the list of works that you can consult at Marionet or request and take home.

 

This also broadens the range of options for our Reading Theatre with Science sessions and for the Collaborative Translation Project that is umbilically connected to them.
