About

Meet Research Assistant, Alex Vector who needs help to complete Dr You’s case notes. Unravelled through a series of stories, tasks, play, and creative thinking, Alex invites you on an interactive adventure around the Grant Museum as part of Dr You’s research team.

Choose to explore individually, as a team, or with Alex! Asking staff and volunteers questions about exhibits is encouraged - as is coming up with your own theories…including how did the battery found in the opossum stomach get there?!

‘Dr You’s Case Notes’ is a series of storytelling events developed by Moulded Theatre Company for the Grant Museum of Zoology.

This workshop is part of UCL Museums & Cultural Programmes 2023-24 event series Architecting Futures from Past Traces, bringing together art, culture and research.
