Science is everywhere. Especially in the Circus!

In this high energy show Dr Quark explores the science and forces behind the circus tricks we all love.

 

While performing feats of unicycling, juggling, rolla bolla and plate spinning, Dr Quark demonstrates the effects of gravity, momentum, friction, air pressure,  energy transfer and push and pull forces.

The students were raving about how great the show was, and the teachers were thrilled too!

He then applies those same concepts and more to his

favourite science demonstrations.

Yes! That means wacky water rockets, groovy gyroscopes, leaf blower levitations, voracious vacuums, ballistic balloons and the incredible ostrich egg squeeze!

 

The show can be modified to suit any theatre, stage

or covered performance area. Mains power required.

With exciting demonstrations, lively music, and plenty of comedy, Dr Quark will engage everyone as they learn about the physical science of the circus and beyond!

Please see Booking Details at the bottom of this page.

Great scientific discoveries

will also be examined including Newton’s Laws of Motion, the Bernoulli effect, Galileo’s law of falling bodies, and Von Guericke’s famous vacuum experiment.

And because Dr Quark is a former Junior Primary/Primary teacher,

he is able to explain all of these concepts in a manner that is suitable for all children aged 4 to 13 years.
