“Absolutely fantastic! My two children were captivated throughout.”

“It’s not often children’s theatre truly inspires but this defies anyone, no matter what their age, not to stare in wonder” – The Scotsman

Less explanation; more exploration.

The lack of language in this show makes it suitable for the whole family. The audience are invited to make their own observations and discoveries, igniting their curiosity and ultimately motivating them to find out for themselves how the world works.

Building on the evaluation of science demonstrations from over 12 years in the field, we have found that the curious and visually stunning experiments have the most impact on audiences. These demonstrations can affect people the most in terms of their attitudes towards science as a subject. Visualise allows people to enjoy the beauty of science and make their own connections with the things they see around them. It does not teach in a traditional sense, but encourages the audience to make their own discoveries and explorations.

Since the project began, the team have toured to 12 different countries, been shortlisted for a Total Theatre Award and received 5 stars at the Edinburgh Fringe! Accompanying resources are available for school groups.

Edinburgh International Science Festival says:

“Prepare to be amazed as two techno-clowns present an altogether different kind of science class. Inspired by the quote: “deep meaning lies often in childish play”, the multi-talented duo Debbie Syrop and Gareth Smith take their lead from the everyday. Using the objects found there, they create physical theatre, projected images, music and live demonstrations to show how the smallest change in perspective can create a mysterious canvas of sound, visuals and image.”
