The Science of Christmas

"SCIENCE OF CHRISTMAS" IS AN ORIGINAL THEATER PERFORMANCE
IN ORDER TO PRESENT SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY
IN AN IMAGINATIVE AND FUNNY WAY.

Children are invited to travel to Bethlehem and find out from eyewitnesses what the Christmas star was. Was it a comet, a supernova, or something even more exotic? How is Santa going to visit every child in the world during one night? Using turbines? Nuclear energy? Or with the helping hand of Einstein? And what is a photon? What is this mysterious thing that enlightens our celebrations every year?

Christmas goes under the scientific microscope of SciCo and through imaginative stories children travel through time and get acquainted with the theory of relativity, and questions on the nature of light, talks about astronomy, during a scientific and funny show about Christmas.

SciCo's history began with the creation of theatrical performances, which aimed to explain complex scientific concepts and phenomena in an original, simple, and understandable way. Our performances took place in festivals, museums, and schools throughout Greece, reaching a total of over 35,000 students.
