Little Blue Dot

September 18, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 5:50 pm AEST

FASCINATING | CAPTIVATING | UNIVERSE

Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered?

Camping together on a star-lit night Dad and Kid wait for a comet passing by for the first time in 50,000 years. While they wait, Kid explains to Dad gravity, light years, space- time and blackholes.

Using puppetry techniques, Lemony S Puppet Theatre transports audiences into space with this striking performance for children and their families

What do a team of astrophysicists have to do with making children’s theatre? Quite a lot at Monash University! LITTLE BLUE DOT has been developed in collaboration with Dr Rosemary Mardling and Dr Alex Wallace from the Monash University School of Physics and Astronomy and commissioned by Monash University Performing Arts Centres with co-commissioning support from Geelong Arts Centre.

Grounded in a camping star-gazing adventure between a child and their dad, LITTLE BLUE DOT tackles the big questions we ask about space, our place in it and why this precious little blue dot floating in space, matters so very much.
