Science Walkabout Show - CSI for Clowns
2.00 - 3.00 p.m.
Main lobby and Lecture Hall Lobby, Hong Kong Science Museum
CSI FOR CLOWNS - Jonathan Beedell & Palfi, Desperate Men
Using various forensic chemistry techniques and real-life investigative methods, two clown detectives try to identify and apprehend the guilty parties and bring them to justice. This show is loosely based around the many popular CSI (Crime Scene Investigation) shows on TV today. The clowns will discover some big crimes but the comedy will come from finding normal everyday situations such as candy taken from a baby and a mysterious dog disappearance. Whilst the chemistry displayed will be based upon real scientific principles, the clowns will provide special appeal to young people and families. The shows will take place in and near the main lobby of the science museum.
Conducted in English, with Cantonese interpretation provided by Theatre Noir.
Suitable for families and the general public.
