Overview

Archimedes of Syracuse (287-212 BC) was a mathematician of the highest order in Ancient Greece along with being a philosopher, an engineer, an inventor, a physicist, and a geometrist. He was favoured by the king of Syracuse, and this is little wonder since Archimedes solved many engineering problems for the king. Archimedes for example, figured out a way to get the water out of a hull in one of the King's ships using a machine he invented.This ingenious musical in one act presents highlights of the life and death of this master of maths and science. The strong script, lyrics, and glorious music make this a grand offering for students from Classes 5 to 12. Opportunities for orchestra, chorus, actors, set and costume design -- and making Archimedes's laws of maths and physics memorable -- abound in this masterpiece of a manageable play.
