The Alphabet of Awesome Science | Adelaide Fringe 2026 | Review

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️   5 Stars for spectacular science & wondrous word play fun! 

Review by Sharon Harrington

The Alphabet of Awesome Science brings together wordsmith, Professor Lexi Con, and scientist, Professor Noel Edge, to share an exciting scientific demonstration and unusual word for every letter of the alphabet. 

Budding scientist or not, your kids will love this fun-filled, educational romp through the alphabet. Lexi and Noel are bubbling with enthusiasm for their “geeky passions” in a show that is hilarious, silly and fascinating all at once.

Lexi & Noel have a great chemistry themselves, as they sing, dance and joke their way through their awesome spectacles which include enormous bubbles, floating smoke rings, spreading fog, fireballs and much more. 

Complicated words and details of scientific experiments are explained in such a way that kids won’t even know they are learning because they are having so much fun.

We loved the way that the children were encouraged to ask questions about life, the universe and everything.

A small amount of water is splashed into the audience, mainly over the front few rows. Our Play & Go kids thought this was great fun, but you might like to avoid sitting too close to the stage if you wish to avoid any splashes!

The Alphabet of Awesome Science is suitable for children aged 5 and up. After the show, kids have the opportunity to pose for a photo with the performers and ask them any science questions or word facts they are curious about.
