RoboThespian FAQ

Where can I see RoboThespians perform?

RoboThespian can be seen at BT's new exhibition Futureworld@ Goonhilly.

RoboThespian's first role is as part of a mechanized theatre installation.
Three robots perform on a 16 metre wide curved stage with a background projection provided by four synchronized projectors. The Mechanical Theatre at The Eden Project was conceived as a science communication and education tool. It features two 15 minute shows, the first about Genetic Modification and the second about the patenting of life. Designed to pose questions and stimulate debate, the installation and shows where funded by the ReDiscover 3 program with financial support from The Millennium Commission , The Wellcome Trust and The Wolfson Foundation.
