LONDON’S world-renowned Science Museum will be taking over Warrington Parr Hall next month when the team hit the road on a national tour.
In a show that’s sure to go off with a bang, Science Museum Live is a new stage production aimed at igniting curiosity, fuelling imagination and cramming all the joy and discovery of the innovative tourist destination onto the stage.
It is coming to Warrington on Sunday, 5 May, and promises to inspire children and the next generation of scientists in surprising ways.
Aimed at little scientists aged five and above, expect explosive experiments at this unmissable show that will capture the fascination of the whole family while teaching something new and exciting too.
Science Museum Live covers a range of physics, chemistry and engineering topics including experiments in sound, weight and mass, fluid dynamics, air pressure, combustion, friction, states of matter and changes of state.
It’s genuinely educational too with the topics covered in the show most appropriate for Key Stage 2 and early Key Stage 3.
The Science Museum was founded in 1857 and remains one of London’s major tourist attractions, attracting millions of visitors each year.
It is also the most visited museum related to science and technology in Europe.
Among more than 300,000 objects to explore, famous exhibits include George Stephenson’s record-setting rocket steam locomotive and the command capsule used by the Apollo 10 astronauts.
Other famous exhibits include the Puffing Billy locomotive, the first jet engine and the first model of DNA.
The live show will continue the museum’s mission to ‘ignite curiosity, encourage scientific endeavour and spark imagination’.
Science Museum Live is at Parr Hall on Sunday, 5 May. Call Box Office on 01925 442345 or visit parrhall.culturewarrington.org/whats-on/science-museum-live
