Audiences for science-theatre: Valued but under-explored (2023)
Book Chapter
Almeida, C., & Weitkamp, E. (in press). Audiences for science-theatre: Valued but under-explored. In Routledge Companion to Performance and Science. Routledge

Despite the growing interest in science-theatre, its audiences remain an under-researched topic within the field of science communication. Therefore, we know relatively little about audience engagement with science-theatre in this context. In this ch... Read More about Audiences for science-theatre: Valued but under-explored.
