Science - Jazz - Mayhem
It’s always better live – whether we’re talking music or science, nothing beats the feeling of it happening right in front of you.
An exhilarating collaboration between and Upbeat Big Band, Offbeat Science brings together an electrifying Big Band sound, explosive science, and a healthy dose of mayhem to create an uproarious show like you’ve never heard or seen before.
🎷Set against the pulse-raising sounds of jazz, soul, funk, and blues, audiences will experience:
🔥 Sound using fire
💥 Test the periodic table’s explosive predictions
🎺 Experience how bowling balls may affect a trumpet player’s pitch
⚡The surprising pyrotechnic power of metals
…and much more
Is it jazz? Is it science? It could be both but it’ll definitely be mayhem! We promise you an unforgettable afternoon of creativity and discovery.
Offbeat Science is brought to you by Cambridge Science Centre and the Upbeat Big Band in partnership with Cambridge Junction, Cambridge Jazz Festival, Cambridge Pianoforte, and Cambridgeshire Music.
📍 J2, Cambridge Junction
👥 Ages 7+ (due to style of humour and level of science content, However, there is nothing inappropriate for younger audiences)
