SUMMARY:Rude Science
DESCRIPTION:The naughtiest\, funniest\, most revolting science show in the world. \nBrace yourselves for BBC Gastronaut Stefan Gates’ revolutionary\, high-tech\, highly-explosive new show\, packed with outrageous science stunts. On the surface it’s a riot of disgusting experiments built to delight young audiences but under the bonnet it’s a brilliantly-constructed curriculum-driven adventure designed to inspire Britain’s kids with a lasting fascination for science. \nExpect enormous bottoms\, f*rt machines\, snot cocktails\, vast whoopee cushions\, pee-powered fireworks and ear-wax-oozing mannequins in this celebration of the fascinating bodily science essential to life. The show transforms complex biology\, physics and chemistry into educational hilarity using Stef’s signature stunts and encyclopaedic science knowledge. \nStefan Gates is an award-winning presenter of 20 TV series (including five for CBBC including Incredible Edibles\, Gastrolab and Gastronuts)\,and a STEM author of 12 books (including Fartology and Science You Can Eat)\, and he’s internationally renowned for his clever\, high-octane\, highly-educational stage shows that inspire young audiences to fall in love with science. \n\nBoth shows are followed by a 40mins post-show meet and greet and photo opportunity with Stefan \nContent Warning:\nLoud bangs\, audience participation\, latex balloons\, stage fog.

SUMMARY:Party Season
DESCRIPTION:PAY WHAT YOU CAN: Join us for the Relaxed performance on Saturday 11 April at 2.30pm. A great option for parents\, with babes in arms welcome\, and a more informal atmosphere designed to help audiences feel comfortable. Relaxed performances are open to everyone. \n\n \nThree parties. One weekend. The invitations have been sent and there’s no going back…it’s Party Season! \nXander is back in town\, and this weekend he’s on parenting duty. The kids are in the ball pit; the Entertainer is blowing bubbles; the adults gobble Perelló olives and pretend to like each other. As ancient grudges rear their heads\, the tension rises like a helium balloon. Caught between who he was and who he’s supposed to be\, Xander must decide whether he’s going to grow up or just pass the parcel. \nFrom the multi-award-winning creators of Education\, Education\, Education and The Last Of The Pelican Daughters comes a sugar-fuelled\, bobbin-winding fever dream where class identities collide\, social niceties unravel\, and underslept parents do their best to hold it all together. \nParty Season is a razor-sharp new comedy about privilege\, party rings and the pressures of being a parent. RSVP! \nA Royal & Derngate\, Northampton\, Wardrobe Ensemble and Lowry co-production \nAudience Notices: This production contains Strong Language\, Use of Haze\, Flashing Lights (no strobes) and Loud Noises throughout.
