Scientist Sam is pouring red liquid from one science beaker to another. He wears safety googles and looks very serious. Captain Chaos stands behind Sam holding another container or red liquid that has smoke pouring out of it. He has a cheeky look on his face to indicate he is about to pour the liquid over Sam's bald head. There is atmospheric smoke around the image which is stands out on a black background.

The Scientwits: Lights, Camera... CHAOS!

Kids and Family • Comedy
Victoria • Australian Premiere

The Scientwits are back with a brand new show! This time, Science Sam is attempting to broadcast a serious, educational TV show - but typically, Captain Chaos has other ideas. Bigger ideas. Incorrect ideas. Occasionally explosive and flammable, more exciting ideas!

There will be science, there will be magic. There will be parts of Sam on fire, again. Sadly for Sam, thanks to Captain Chaos and his appalling lack of basic scientific knowledge and attention to detail, nothing will go right. Again.

Be a part of another rollicking, high-energy blend of science and comedy that has had ‘The Scientwits’ audiences spellbound and coming back for more and more family friendly fun.

Suitable for ages 4 to 4,000,000. This is a one-of-a-kind, high-energy and interactive sketch comedy extravaganza that's not to be missed!
