“Love is in the Air” is a play that can only reach its conclusion by students solving mathematical prblems along the way. Students work with two actors, the modern day Pythagoras and Archimedes, to save the world and win the heart of Archie’s true love, Carmela. This cross-curricular approach speaks to students in their own language and informs and entertains at the same time. It lasts approximately 1 hour 45 minutes and fits into your school day. Have a look at our new maths trailer to get an idea of what a workshop looks like.
