What is Big Van: Scientific Monologues
Big Van: Scientific Monologues is a science communication show that combines humour and performing arts to make science and technology accessible and engaging. The proposal blends entertainment with rigour, with a clear goal: to spark scientific curiosity in the audience and promote STEM vocations—that is, interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
The format is stand-up comedy: each performer takes the stage to share, with humour, concepts and experiences from their research field. According to information published about the show, it consists of several monologues.
Who performs
The scientific monologues are performed by the Big Van Ciencia team, a group of active scientists and researchers. On their website, Big Van Ciencia defines itself as a collective aiming to transform science communication into an attractive product for all audiences. They present their project as a scientific revolution that seeks to transform society through humour and science.
Schedule and doors opening
The Big Van show at Sala Big Bang opens its doors at 18:45, fifteen minutes before the performance starts at 19:00. The venue, located on Felipe Valls street in Valencia, hosts theatre and shows, including a line of science communication and family-friendly proposals.
