In this paper we present a teaching experiment which is particularly motivating for students following an Operational Research course. The experiment consists of the presentation of a theatre play by the students in which they integrate a real world problem, its modelisation, the use of associated software and sensitivity analysis. This experiment can easily be reproduced by any teacher in O.R.
