So what's in a show?
Science shows are included with your ticket. They're completely free and totally unmissable. You can sit down, but you won't sit still. Our brilliant Inspirers will take you on a fun-packed adventure with exciting experiments, dazzling demos and fascinating facts.
The Science Theatre is an intimate environment. You might be asked to sit next to visitors not in your group. If you would rather not to do this, that's not a problem. Just let us know. We'll try to find you other seats if there's space or move your group to a quieter show.
What sets the experience apart from just another museum is the staff, particularly those in the science shows. They're really good with children and happy to explain things further and interact.
The science show was excellent and free.
 The science show and planetarium show are entertaining, educational and the right length for those with little attention spans.

Accessibility information for the Science Theatre
The Science Theatre is accessible so everyone can enjoy all the fun. Sometimes there will be loud noises, but we'll tell you about them before the shows start. If you want to wear ear defenders, you can borrow them from the welcome area, Bio:Space, Science Theatre and Science Live.
If you don't like loud noises, you can come to a special not-so-noisy show. You can find out when these are on before you book your visit. If you feel nervous in a show, you can stay near the back and leave quickly if you need to.
We even have special British Sign Language days for shows in the Planetarium, Science Live and Science Theatre. Ask us and we'll tell you when they're on so you don't miss out.
