Join us at the St George’s Arts Centre for a special family interactive workshop/experience from Whirligig Workshops as part of our Autumn Exhibition ‘Frights and Delights’.
The audience enters a dark room with just one small light across the space (a Victorian-looking laboratory). They sit, but the presenter is nowhere to be seen. A train sounds, then out jumps a steam punk time travelling scientist! Just having gotten off their time-travelling train, they talk to the audience about where they have been.
With the use of a cool prism, a shadow puppet theatre and an array of unique plasma balls, participants learn all about the history and science behind, light, reflection and shadows, as our steam punk time travelling scientist tells them all about their voyages meeting famous scientists in history.
They even throw in a few dinosaur facts and shadows because, well to be honest, they just love a dinosaur, I mean who doesn’t!?
The performance concludes with glow-in-the-dark slime!
The experience lasts 1 hour with an additional 15 minutes at the end to take photographs.
Suggested age 5+ for workshop participation.
We aim for our workshops to be as inclusive as possible and invite everyone to attend. However, if the participant has additional needs, please contact us in advance so that we can make our facilitators aware.
Please note, photography and Videography may take place at any of our events. We will always make you aware before we take any photographs/videos, and if we intend to take shots other than backs of heads, then we will always ask you to complete a permission form beforehand. Should you not wish to be photographed/videoed at all, please inform the photographer/videographer.
