inspire awe and ignite curiosity in spectacular kinetic fashion.
What we do
Since 2004 Wonderstruck science shows and workshops have been all about inspiring wonder in the world around us. We work with children and adults in formal and informal settings to explore science in a hands-on, creative and spectacular way.
The last 21 years have been a wild ride. Wonderstruck science shows and workshops have spread the sciencey goodness to hundreds of schools across the UK with groups from year R to post-16. We’ve run workshops and shows for 10 children and we’ve run them for just under a thousand. We’ve performed shows at the Royal Institution, Cheltenham Science Festival, the Abu Dhabi Science Festival, the Bradford Science Festival and quite a few others. We’ve even ‘warmed up’ for Alesha Dixon at the huge Make the Future Live event at the Olympic Park, Stratford in 2017.
We’ve learned to do some crazy stuff. We can safely explode a car or a shed on stage (take your pick), take a shower in liquid nitrogen, use a 6-foot long jet engine as a hairdrier and set off 7 kilos of thermite safely on a school playing field.
What does the future hold? We’re always learning and we’re always developing new ideas so we couldn’t really say. But that’s the way we like it.
Looking forward to September!
July was absolutely crazy – packed full of amazing events in schools and elsewhere. But August is a time when things quieten down a bit for us and we have a bit of time to sort out our kit, build some new stuff and also relax a bit.
As a result, the office is going to be semi-closed for the next four weeks. You may not be able to get hold of us on the phone but we will be keeping an eye on emails, although response time might be a bit longer than usual.
So, do drop us a line if you have any questions and we look forward to seeing everyone in September!
