Since the beginning of time, human beings have gazed up at the night sky and wondered… What are the stars made of? How big is the universe? Is there life on other planets? The answers to all these questions and more will be revealed in Universarama! (possibly).

Let Professor Johnson of the Squashbox Theatre Astounding And Amazing Astronomical Research Society (S.T.A.A.A.A.R.S) take you on a journey from Cornwall to the edges of space and time! Along the way we will explore the solar system, study the stars and constellations, visit distant galaxies, and hear the fascinating story of John Couch Adams, the Cornishman who discovered Neptune.

Using only silly puppets, ridiculous and unnecessary props, simple household objects, and assorted fruits and vegetables, Professor Johnson will reveal the secrets of the universe!

Confused? You won’t be after watching Universarama

Universarama! is a marvellous blend of spectacle, storytelling and cabaret, all contained within an accessible, funny and unique family show. It is the creation of Craig Johnson – actor, musician, puppeteer, astronomy fan, and long-standing member of Cornwall’s renowned Kneehigh Theatre.
