On stage, computers or camera tricks cannot create the type of special effects seen in movies, and any special effects performed cannot endanger the actors. Therefore, the technicians who produce these special effects on stage must fully understand the scientific complexities of lighting as well as effect producers such as rain, fog, and snow machines. In this fun look at how science is used in everyday life, readers can discover the ideas of science found behind special effects on stage.
