Science Burlesque

I desperately want to go to this event, but can’t make it tonight. It’s the most intriguing thing I’ve seen in ages though. Here’s the description from The Cockpit website:

The innocent joy of discovery at the heart of science, plied with absinthe till it wakes in a stranger’s bed.

You’d be surprised how many scientists secretly want to dress up in a corset and swap the bright, shiny lab for the dark, seedy cabaret.
Tonight, some of them will get the chance. 

Acts include: 
Morgan & West – Victorian magic
Ella Murray – sexy science comedy
Simon Watt – live psychological experimentation
Nicole Slavin – consumptive opera
Simon Hardeman – stand up & songs
Dr. Suze Kundu – dance
Oliver Meech – science/comedy/magic
Carmen Ali – comedy & song
Louise Crane – more dance
Dr. Andrew Pontzen – disturbing songs

MC Timandra Harkness

You may be entertained, thrilled, amused, excited and disturbed, but you won’t be educated…
Not about science.
Chemistry & conjuring, Mathematics and music, and of course Biology and burlesque.
Definitely NOT for children.”
