‘Kelvin Home Alone’: Event Phys­ics show re­turns to Pader­born Uni­ver­sity (Kopie 1)

The wild stage show from Event-Physik is back: following the huge success of the show in March, Paderborn University is once again inviting the public to ‘Kelvin Home Alone’ in the Audimax this October – with plenty of new developments and surprises in store. Inspired by “Home Alone”, the Event Physics team will be presenting spectacular experiments set against the backdrop of the classic film. Anyone interested can look forward to a live-action show of a very special kind. The events will take place on Monday 5 October and Tuesday 6 October, both at 5 pm, and on Wednesday 7 October at 7 pm. Free tickets can be booked on the Event-Physik website at karten.event-physik.de. On Thursday 1 October at 11.00 am, there will also be an exclusive screening for school classes and courses. Registrations for this can be made by emailing info@event-physik.de.

In their show, the Event-Physik team take the audience on a journey through time, 200 years into the past. Kevin becomes Kelvin – a young physicist whose scientific inventions are targeted by burglars. Using a host of experiments – including some audience favourites such as the burning bath, dangerous quicksand, a biological salami blowtorch and a laser sword – Kelvin attempts to put the intruders to flight.

About Event Physics

Students at Paderborn University developed the show as part of a class taught by Dr. Marc Sacher, a lecturer in the Department of Physics at Paderborn University and founder of Event-Physik. Thanks to its unique approach to knowledge transfer, the team has made a name for itself beyond the university since its start-up in 2007. The members appear, for example, at science events or as experts on television programmes.
