Remember Brainiac: Science Abuse? The wacky and ridiculous pop-science show, hosted by Richard Hammond and Vic Reeves, blew up old caravans and scientific ideas on Sky One. After six seasons, the series ended in 2008 - but the concept of Brainiac never died.
As well as influencing other myth-busting programmes like Duck Quacks Don’t Echo (also on Sky One), it’s transferred comfortably to the theatre like a chemical bond. Having performed across the UK and around the world, from Australia to Tunbridge Wells, Brainiac Live! returns to London at the Garrick Theatre this Summer.
On stage, a team of lab-coated experimenters blow up dustbins, spin chairs to supercharged acceleration, and shoot the ultimate Airzooka. This is a limited four-week run from the end of July to the start of September, so it’d be best to book quickly. And kids go free in August!
Ready your science goggles and Bunsen burners, this’ll be a night of explosive, educational fun. Watch the trailer below.
