Wonders of our Universe

Price: £18 – 20
A landscape at dusk, lit by the setting sun, with a single person stood silhouetted against the setting sun.

Event description

7:30pm

This isn’t just a theatre show — it’s a voyage through space and time like no other.

Guided by astrophysicist Ian Hall FRAS, Wonders of Our Universe takes audiences on an awe-inspiring journey from the explosive birth of the cosmos to humanity’s
first steps beyond our home planet.

Visually spectacular, scientifically rich and emotionally stirring, Wonders of Our Universe will change the way you see the night sky — and your place within it. This is science as you’ve never experienced it before: live, cinematic, and utterly unforgettable.

Recommended Age Guidance: 11 years plus, although children younger than this will enjoy the show if they are particularly engaged with the topic. Warnings: Haze
