Date: June 27 2012; 10:30 – 12:00
Admission: Free
Location: Aula Maxima, UCC
Storytellers and scientists bring the enchantment of scientific discovery to children of ages 7 – 12 in a lively and well-grounded show.
In the story “Why?” “Cause that’s the way it is!” a boy and a girl are drawn into a wonderful adventure.
Children will be guided from one storyteller to the next during the performance which will be followed by interactive experiments linked to the story.
This will be performed by Dublin’s Story-O in collaboration with Professor M. Schellekens (Department of Computer Science, UCC) and Dr. Cliona O’Carroll (Department of Folklore and Ethnology , UCC)
