THE ENERGY SHOW Comes to Exeter Northcott Theatre Tonight

Family theatre for curious minds will explode onto the Exeter Northcott Theatre in April as the Science Museum's The Energy Show looks to bring the subject of science to life in exciting new ways.

Join Annabella and Phil, two futuristic science students, in a race against time to prove their knowledge of energy. With help from their virtual lab-assistant, i-nstein, and a steampunk workshop full of gadgets and chemicals, they will question, explore, experiment and explode anything and everything they can lay their hands on.

See methane bubbles set alight to create fireballs, watch liquid nitrogen freeze flowers and dodge the hydrogen rockets as they are fired into the audience. Stand well back and cover your ears - this show is explosively exciting!

Tickets are £16. Family tickets are £42 for 3 or more and up to 3 more tickets are £14 each. School tickets are £10 for groups of 10 or more. Groups of 10 or more also get the 11th ticket free. The show is appropriate for ages 7 and up. Running time is 1 hour 50 minutes, and school matinees are 75 minutes with no interval.

The Science Museum was founded in 1857 as part of the South Kensington Museum, and gained independence in 1909. Today the Museum is world renowned for its historic collections, awe-inspiring galleries and inspirational exhibitions. For more information, visit www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/energyshow.
