How do you invent it? Is there a formula? Do artists and scientists use similar methods and apply them to their specific work?
These are some of the questions we’ll be asking as a group from December 18th to 22nd at Marionet’s next Theatre and Science Workshop. During these days we’ll compare artistic processes and scientific methods, materialising them with the help of the most ephemeral of arts, theatre.
To imagine is like opening a magazine and finding images you didn’t even know you were looking for. Without limits or boundaries, we venture into the universe of imagination, which is inexhaustible and, also because of this, opens up new possibilities for interpreting everything that exists.

18-22 December 2023
10:00 am – 5:00 pm
Age group: 9 – 13
Limited to 10 children
This Workshop emerged from the need to bring the disciplinary intersection Theatre/Science to the young public. Marionet stands out for its 22 years of ongoing work on the intersection between Performing Arts and Science. Along the way, there were several times that the work crossed with younger audiences and these moments made clear the importance of communicating science in a more practical, interactive and playful way.
The workshops take place when the children don’t have school activities. They lasted for five days, and were prepared by Marionet’s team, directed by Mário Montenegro and coordinated by Carolina Andrade, graduated in Theatre and Education.
