In March we put on an insect cabaret show I developed with Cap-A-Pie Theatre about insects and the threats they face. We've now uploaded the songs and everyone can now see how brilliant the actors and song-writer were. Thread of songs below 👇🧪 #Insects #cabaret #theatre #scicomm #songs

Ever wondered how science and theatre can come together?
Dr @viveknityananda.bsky.social worked with Cap-a-Pie Theatre to illustrate the decline of insect species, and chose theatre to convey a message that traditional lectures often struggle to. 🐛
