Moving with Science
This program is a dramatic dance performance, starring Sir Isaac Newton and his Laws of Motion as he describes the effects of forces on dancers’ bodies in a playful, relatable way. The program introduces the addition and subtraction of forces, the effects of acceleration, centripetal force, friction and more. As Sir Isaac explains, the dancers test and challenge his theories in the execution of leaps, turns and lifts. As the students watch the dancers and Laws of Motion in action, it helps them correlate the power and value of science to impact their everyday lives and hopefully inspires their future interest in the science inquiries into the nature of the universe.
