  • This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Catalyst Collaborative, a relationship between Central Square Theater in Cambridge and MIT.

The collaboration between MIT and the Central Square Theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts, has resulted in a unique blend of theater and science, highlighted in a video segment by CBS Boston. This partnership, known as the Catalyst Collaborative at MIT, aims to foster a dialogue between artists and scientists, allowing for mutual inspiration and education. The initiative includes workshops, performances, and discussions where theater artists explore scientific concepts through their art, and scientists engage with the creative process. This interdisciplinary approach not only enriches the cultural landscape but also promotes innovative thinking by integrating the methodologies of science with the expressive freedom of theater. The collaboration has been praised for breaking down barriers between these seemingly disparate fields, encouraging a deeper understanding and appreciation of both disciplines among participants and audiences alike.
