“Walking Tall performs at Ditsong Museum during National Science Week, South Africa 2018 #AllfromOne #ScienceTheatre ” quote=”Walking Tall for Science”]Walking Tall took part in the recent National Science Week (NSW), performing for learners, educators and staff at the Ditsong National Museum of Natural History in Pretoria.

Taking place annually, NSW is an initiative of the Department of Science and Technology (DST) that celebrates science through a nationwide programme of events. The 2018 theme was “Deepening our democracy through science,” which was powerfully echoed by the inspirational story of our shared origins told through Walking Tall’s physical theatre performance.

Through movement, Walking Tall illustrates the story of how life and humankind developed from shared ancestors into the diverse group of beings living on earth today. In this way, the physical theatre show helps combat discrimination and racism, and promote nature conservation.
