Science Claus starring Rick Crosslin & Keith Ramsey

Step back in time and celebrate the 200th anniversary of the very first Holiday Science Lectures at London’s Royal Institution! In 1825, the great scientist Michael Faraday amazed children with the science of candlelight—marking the first time kids were invited to experience science live on stage. Before then, science was reserved for the wealthy and aristocratic. Now, Rick Crosslin and Keith Ramsey—decked out in 1825 science attire—recreate that magic, bringing history’s most exciting discoveries to life for today’s families. Expect explosions, brilliant flashes of light, and even a holiday twist with the hilarious song, “The Twelve Days of Science Claus.”

This one-hour program is designed for the whole family. Every jaw-dropping demonstration is paired with a chance to discover the science behind the spectacle—turning curiosity into understanding.

Get ready for an unforgettable mix of laughter, learning, and holiday cheer. Whether you’re a lifelong science fan, a holiday enthusiast, or just looking for a dazzling family adventure, Science Claus is the event you won’t want to miss!
