Science Magic Messy Mayhem

Ignite young imaginations and nurture a lifelong love of science with Science Magic, a high-energy, interactive comedy experience designed for children aged 5 to 12.

Created and performed by a comedian and zoologist who has delighted audiences in over 20 countries, this show combines clever science tricks with laugh-out-loud moments, all using everyday objects kids can find at home. Each performance demystifies scientific concepts, encouraging children to see themselves as budding scientists who can experiment, explore and discover on their own.

Science Magic is more than entertainment, it’s an accessible gateway to curiosity and learning, priced affordably so that every child, regardless of background, can experience the wonder of science. Let’s inspire the next generation of scientists by showing them that magic is real – when you understand the science behind it!
