Youngsters will have the opportunity to explore scientific theories on stage when the BBC brings its popular Bang Goes the Theory Live Roadshow to Sheffield this weekend.

BBC team will be setting up their scientific base camp at the Irwin Mitchell Oval at Sheffield City Hall, Barker’s Pool, until Monday, 7 May 2012.

Viewers can join members of the team as they recreate some of the best stunts from the TV series and test, stretch and explode scientific theories live on stage.

Science superstar and science ‘boffin’ Dr Yan Wong will be joined by presenters from the TV show Jem Stansfield, Liz Bonnin and Dallas Campbell for the live tour.

Presenter Dallas Campbell said: “The roadshow is undoubtedly the highlight of the Bang calendar. It’s the time where we can let our hair down meeting the viewers who’ve made the TV show such a success. As well as the live show, which is always full of surprises, it’s wonderful to be able to talk about what we’ve been up to first hand, swap ideas and let people get hands-on with some fantastic science for themselves.”

The Bang Goes the Theory Live Roadshow will take place every day this Bank Holiday weekend, from 11.30am and 4pm.

All tickets to the shows are free, but viewers have to apply for tickets via the website.
