About the Show
This unique live theatrical performance follows the adventures of Sam, an energetic and bubbly young student who has been selected at random to represent her school in a prestigious national mathematics competition.
Sam unfortunately struggles with a lack of self confidence in maths and general apathy towards STEM subjects. She is worried about how she will perform in the competition and what her friends will say if she fails.
Everything changes when Sam meets the amazing Hypatia – a time travelling, maths tutoring, super hero and her crew of maths mindset mentors – who have been helping students through the millennia deal with similar problems.
