EVENTS COMING IN AUGUST Dr Bunhead’s Secret Science Lab // 24-25 July Forgotten Fields Festival // 7-9 Aug International TV stunt scientist Dr Bunhead (Brainiac, Blue Peter, The Slammer) presents an explosive show. He explores everyday bits and bobs, combining recycling with science to inspire budding scientists of all ages to get their hands dirty, but not the carpet. With his array of rainbow fountains, fizz rockets, fire bubbles and all sorts of other awesome science contraptions, you’ll leave armed with heaps of safe and spectacular experiments to try at home, and some you definitely shouldn’t! Health warning: Dr Bunhead shows may cause serious addiction to science. 1.30pm and 4.30pm (Friday), 11am and 2.30pm (Saturday). Price: £8.50 (family ticket £28) Pavilion Theatre, Marine Parade, Worthing BN11 3PX www.worthingtheatres.co.uk / 01903 206206 Having sold out Kendal Calling in record-breaking time earlier this year, the creative minds behind the fan favourite Lake District Festival recently announced Forgotten Fields, a groundbreaking, intimate new festival at Eridge Deer Park in Sussex. With an emphasis on great atmosphere, incredible music, good food and drink and arts, Forgotten Fields will see headline performances from Super Furry Animals, Basement Jaxx, Levellers, and De La Soul, with hundreds of other emerging and established acts set to play over three days between 7-9th August 2015. Erdige Park, Eridge Green, Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex TN3 9JT www.forgottenfields.co.uk Basement Jaxx Iolanthe // 30 July Gilbert and Sullivan’s most magical comic opera is set half in Fairyland, half in Westminster – although both places seem to be full of the same bumbling Lords. Its hilarious and surprisingly topical satire pokes fun at love, class and politics. Here it gets the complete Illyria treatment, faithfully performed by a reduced cast and accompanied by a Musical Director on keyboard to leave you with a song in your heart. Suitable for all ages 5+. Targeted at: all ages 10+. 7pm.
