Mario is the most professional…
Mario is the most professional presenter. His inflatable dome is amazing. His knowledge is outstanding. All staff and children had the most wonderful time.
This is the second time Mario has visited Oakfield Preparatory School and he will definitely be invited back again.

The Oakfield Prep School students were a delight to welcome into our 7m dome. Not only were they well-behaved and attentive, but also bursting with curiosity. We were particularly impressed by the Nursery pupils, who as a group were more knowledgeable about Space than many Year 1 groups we meet! Thank you for a delightful visit.
A super informative visit!
The children loved it and so did I. This is our third year using immersive theatres. We changed our film choice this year and I learnt loads! A great visit to inspire the children. Professional, great knowledge and an amazing experience.

It was brilliant having more time with the students by dividing them into two groups in the 6m dome. We thoroughly enjoyed the questions, interaction and engagement too, thank you.
Brilliant experience!
Mario was great and the kids loved the experience - what a great way to get them excited about their space topic. I would absolutely recommend Immersive Theatres to anyone looking to get this sort of experience into their school.

What a wonderful experience it was…
What a wonderful experience it was having the mobile planetarium visit our school. The children loved the atmosphere inside the dome and the information given was exceptional. Mario really knew his "space" stuff and his delivery was calm and at a level the children could understand. He definitely loves his work and this showed in the delivery of the presentation.
Thank you again, we would definitely recommend!

Weymouth school booking
Mario travelled down to Weymouth to deliver a mobile planetarium experience for our Year 5 & 6 children. The whole experience was absolutely amazing; the information provided by Mario was top notch and he was very prompt and professional with his emails in the booking process. The presentation to pupils was engaging and informative and the films gave lots of awe and wonder. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed it and so did the teachers. Thank you Mario

Thank you Dan, Mario really enjoyed delivering the experience to your very excited but well-behaved students.
Mario joined us at Hereford Library
Mario joined us at Hereford Library - what can I say. from start to finish the whole experience was a dream. He arrived and set up smoothly and like clock work, there was no stress or issues, all very smooth and hugely professional. The events that we hosted went amazingly with the public, every child that came out ( and adult) was blown away by the whole experience. We even had a young girls birthday party - they had the thrill of being sucked into a black hole !! What more can you ask for.
A fantastic experience and worth every penny. educational and fun all at the same time. My favourite fact was that if we ever do manage to travel to Mars most of the astronauts will probably be female as its believed that they will cope better physically and mentally to long term space travel !!

Royal International Air Tattoo
We booked Immersive Theatres for the Royal International Air Tattoo last weekend and cannot recommend Mario and the team highly enough.
We had three full days of capacity shows with fantastic content supporting our celebration of 50 since the first moon landing. Thank you!

Good to receive your review Ms Hocking. We enjoyed interacting with the students and found them to be very knowledgeable too.
Outstanding Plannetarium
Super set of shows to 4 different age brackets ranging from Y1 to Y8. All the shows were different and highly informative using video clips and animations. More clips were used to help answer pupils' questions. Very well presented - a great day!!! Highly recommend Mario and Immersive Theatres...

Fabulous planetarium experience!
Thank you so much for the most wonderful 2 days at our school! All the staff and children were mesmerised and enthralled by the planetarium and I am sure will remember the experience for a long time! The whole programme was extremely well run by yourself and the careful planning and questions asked by yourself before your visit show how professional the company are.
