Astronomer Adrian West brings The Night Sky Show, a visual and thought-provoking experience about the night sky, to the Hull New Theatre.
The Night Sky Show – A Sky Full of Hope comes to Hull New Theatre on Saturday 14 November, with astronomer Adrian West taking the lead. It's a visual show built around the night sky, and as the title suggests, it carries a hopeful tone to it.
West is the one on stage, and he's an astronomer by trade, so the whole thing comes from a place of actual knowledge rather than just a love of the stars. He'll be guiding you through the night sky, and the show is described as a visual and thought-provoking experience, so expect to spend a good chunk of the evening looking up and thinking about what's out there. It's less of a lecture and more of a presentation, with the visuals doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
If you've ever spent a clear night staring up and wondered what you were actually looking at, this is exactly the kind of thing that puts names and context to the shapes. West brings the astronomical side of things to the front, so you'll get the facts about the stars and the constellations, but the 'thought-provoking' part of the description suggests it's not just about the science — there's a bit of the bigger picture in there too.
