Reviews

from Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2008 

"... a wholly multimedia experience and a dazzling display of honest fun. I wish school science was taught like this."   ThreeWeeks, August 2008. Read the full review here.

"...a chorus of wows testament to its effect on the young audience."   The Stage, 6th August 2008

"IT'S not often children's theatre truly inspires but this defies anyone, no matter what their age, not to stare in wonder as two techno-clowns present an altogether different kind of science class... This is inventive, well-imagined stuff that keeps a smile on your face from start to finish."   The Scotsman, 20th August 2008. Read the full review here.

"...with every part done seamlessly and with cunning genius. It's the science lesson children will so enjoy, they'll never know they've learned something."   The Herald, 21st August 2008

"...encouraging kids to look at their world through a scientific lens is no easy feat, and Sirop and Smith do it very well."The List, 14th August 2008

"Excellent stuff. My kids loved it and they're a tough crowd. Go see it for yourself."

"Absolutely fantastic! My two children were captivated throughout. The best children's show we've ever seen."

"Pure dead brilliant."

"Excellent!!! ten stars. 3 gold medals"
