Church Road, Tunbridge Wells, Kent TN1 1JP
10am, 11.30am and 2pm, Saturday 1st November.
Rust + Stardust (Tweethearts, Princess and The Winter Dragon) join us again for another magical puppet show for children aged 6+ and their grown-ups.
Neither wealth, nor power – only knowledge endures! A funny and light-hearted look at one of science’s forgotten figures, told with table top and shadow puppetry and projection art. In 1577, before the invention of the telescope, most people still believe that the sun goes round the Earth. Not so for Tycho Brahe, the eccentric astrologer and alchemist with a prosthetic nose for every occasion, who bears witness to the appearance of a new and brilliant star in the night sky.
In his observatory in the Castle of Uraniborg, Tycho invents amazing cosmological theories with his friend Jeppe, a clairvoyant dwarf, and Erik, his drunken pet moose. Join Tycho, Jeppe and Erik for a whistlestop tour through Renaissance astrology – that is, of course, provided Erik can stop crashing into the astrological instruments…
