We were delighted to be asked to provide entertainment for the President's Reception for the Chartered Institute of Taxation in the Earth Galleries at The Natural History Museum. The President wanted a 'science' themed event based around quantum physics and in particular the Schrodinger's Cat experiment where the theory goes that an animate object can be alive and dead at the same time. Schrodinger's hypothetic 'experiment' stated that you put a cat in a box with some radio active material and a bottle of cyanide and if one atom from the radio active material were to leak it would break the bottle of cyanide and the cat would be killed.
This was a testing request from a client to re-enact the theoretical experiment in front of the guests but this we did with the use of an actor playing schrodinger a funny, yet imformative script and the help of a few props including a 'Bagpuss' for the cat. We also provided stilt walking aliens, Arbie a very helpful robotic waiter, a jazz band and three wonderful caracaturists
