The new Hypatia reflector

25 March 2024

The second edition of the Full Moon Theatre Visiting School was held in Hooke Park at the end of March 2024.

This time we had the opportunity to build together and test a new, improved, reflector design, that we named Hypatia, after the first female mathematician and astronomer whose life is reasonably well recorded.

The new reflector and frame assembly is significantly cheaper, easier to assembly, easier to manouvre and, when disassemled, can fit in the back of a van. This will allow the Full Moon Theatre technical equipment to be easily transported in the future.
