R*E*P*E*A*T (anti) Christmas Party 'In Sickness and in Health'
Portland Arms, Cambridge |
The six tracks from Genomics! The Musical! now available for download from Bandcamp for you to listen to at your leisure. For a full listing please, some chances to listen to the songs, and download the album, please go to the Singing Science Bandcamp website. I hope you enjoy them!
Genomics! The Musical! is a one person show where the fundamentals of genes and our DNA are explained using a series of ‘musical mini-lectures’. Ideas are introduced with words, and then developed on with catchy songs performed with a video backdrop providing further insights into the science of what makes us us. All done with a light touch of humour to provide an ideal family edutainment show!
Themes cover Mendel’s pea plant experiments, the gene-RNA-protein relationship, variation and the phylogenetic tree. The Mendel song is the proud winner of the Geekpop most contrived lyric award.
The show can be tailored to child/teen or adult audiences, and can be performed in halls, schools, pubs and festival tents. In fact, anywhere with a sound system and a projector! Running time is around 45 minutes,
If you would like to book a show please contact singingscience@outlook.com for more information.
Many thanks go to the collaborators who work with making the music and videos that make this show such a success, and the Wellcome Trust Public Engagement Team for guidance and initial funding for the project.

One of the most important centres for Genomics field in the is the Broad Institute, and I was lucky enough to do a show there in October 2019! This was a slightly different space (an open area performance staircase!) and audience (trained geneticists!) to my usual, so there was a…
This is one of the first songs I wrote with a science theme – maybe even the second. Mulling over a Geekpop virtual festival that was being run, inspiration hit as I was heading down to the Co-op to buy something. The idea popped into my head and it was…
