Nanogirl's live science spectacular is here 11 Nov!
Our explosive live science and engineering spectacular is coming to Christchurch! “Engineering Magic” will amaze and delight audiences, exploring the remarkable things that can happen when engineering and science come together with imagination. Huge flames, incredible stunts, a real-life bed of nails - it’s a show to keep every member of the family on the edge of their seat!
When: 11th November 2017
Where: Isaac Theatre Royal, Christchurch
We look forward to seeing you there!
Pay It Forward
Nanogirl believes that science is for everyone, and the Nanogirl Labs team work hard to ensure that tickets to our Nanogirl Live! events are affordable. Despite those efforts, for some New Zealanders, theatre shows like this are still very special events that do not fit within the family budget.
Through our 'Pay-It-Forward' programme, you can help make science and engineering accessible for everyone. For every 'Pay-It-Forward' ticket you purchase, you enable someone who would not otherwise have had the chance to see this live science spectacular to come along. Only available via the Regent Theatre box office.
