From 15 March - 11 April, a new musical show using puppetry and multi-media will be available to stream from home. Jina and the STEM Sisters and accompanying resources follows the story of a young would-be scientist who needs empowerment from historical STEM women to help her find her way. 

Female pioneers featured in the show include Marie Curie, Ada Lovelace, and Hedy Lamarr, with areas covered including coding a digital soundscape, as well as curiosity, courage, creativity, persistence and open-mindedness.  

The musical, initially created pre-Covid as a touring show for schools, is created by HMDT Music, written by Rachel Barnett-Jones, composed by Jenny Gould, and is £10 to stream per family.
