Fantastic experience for the children…

Fantastic experience for the children and allowed them to really get into the topic and further their learning. Didn't rtealise that you could use it for some many other topics, not just space. Will definately be thinking how we can include it in future topics.

Amazing experience

Thank you Mario for such an amazing experience! We booked Immersive Theatres for a birthday party and it was even better than anticipated! The children are still talking about a space rollercoaster and how incredible it was to see the stars and a space station. The Dome looks more spacious from inside and even the children who were a bit reluctant to go inside changed their minds the second they stepped in through the opening. Very professional from booking until the end. Would highly recommend to everyone.

Your Year 5 classes asked some of the most insightful and interesting questions we have ever received - and answering them using 360° planetarium visuals was an absolute pleasure. Thank you for your feedback.

A brilliant planetarium booking!

Mario brought the 7m dome to our North London school for Year 7 Science Enrichment Day. He was thorough and professional in the lead up, designing us a bespoke programme that worked around our timetable and suited our needs perfectly. On the day he was punctual and well-prepared on arrival and when the day started he really wowed us. Mario’s knowledge and presenting style engaged our students instantly and took them on an amazing journey through space and time. He also found time to put on a Staff Relaxation Pod at lunch time and squeezed in an unexpected KS2 group right at the end of the day without any hesitation. We could not recommend Mario and Immersive Theatres highly enough and will definitely be rebooking. Thank you Mario from everyone at Channing School!

It's always a great pleasure to deliver a booking to students who are keen to learn and appreciate the digital planetarium - and the effort their teachers have gone to into making the visit possible. It's also fun to use the digital dome for music & art at lunchtime, helping teachers relax during their break.

5th Birthday Party

Mario traveled all the way from Bristol to our local village hall in Guildford with his 4m dome for our son's 5th Birthday party. We can’t say enough how fantastic he was throughout the process and how brilliant his performance was. Working closely with us for many weeks leading up to the party, he created an exciting programme of bespoke content, that resulted in a highly interactive show that combined the perfect balance of education and entertainment we wanted. I felt that he happily welcomed our ideas and embraced incorporating new elements to his programme, such as games and quizzes, to enable a 'reward' element to the party that were after.

Mario' patience and rapport with the children (and with my demands!), his enthusiasm for the subject and our particular event , alongside his professionalism and characterful delivery, made for a really successful , unique and importantly for us, non-stressful party.

The audience loved it and the messages and feedback I’ve had from both children and parents alike has been overwhelming. So thank you, Mario, for all your hard work and the extra time that you spent to include the personal touches that we so wanted to achieve - you smashed it!

Almeley Primary School

We had such a great day when Mario came to visit on Friday (17th Nov). He was happy to let us share the experience with another local primary school and as a result, over 50 children received a life-changing experience.
The presenter-led section was fantastic and complemented our Science lessons well. It was lovely that Mario was willing to stop and take questions throughout so that the children continued to learn new facts - he was extremely knowledgeable!
The experience was so engaging and even my most wriggly child sat completely entranced throughout!
Thank you very much - I will definitely book again!

A WONDERFUL IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE and extremely professional company

An astrophysicist, 2 poets and a musician worked with Mario di Maggio and Immersive Theatres on an Arts Council-funded performance called E-X-P-A-N-D-N-G: The History of the Universe in 45 minutes. Mario was professional, on time, interested, enthusiastic and a pleasure to work with - and EVERYONE LOVED the mobile planetarium dome experience - aged 8 up to aged 90 yrs!!!
