The experiments of professor Melquíades

"Melquíades experimenter". Spectacle of science, for greater of eight years. Conceived and interpreted by Trimming District. In the theater Regina, Santa Fe 1235, Saturdays and Sundays, to 16. Entrance: $ 6.
Our opinion: good

The scene has become a full laboratory of strangers and colorful objects. Watching with attention it can be verified that one is hoses, ropes, sewers, bottles, tins, glasses, cans. The majority is objects of daily use (or almost), but is painted of alive colors, being brilliant for a new function. Music suggestive and is calmed. Melquíades enters and begins to take a thing, soon another one, like that plays and proves the objects and their behavior.

It silverplates it follows it in silence. The experiments are several. In a bottle that contains liquid of three densities, an egg is suspended in means; in a bottle with water, the hood of a pen raises and low according to is tightened or not it bottle. Also there are liquids that are not spilled, or cannot enter a container. There is water that can be trasvasar upwards, two tins that form a small jet, and ignited candles that raise and lower mysteriously. After leaving installed this multiple challenge more the laws known the physics, Melquíades scene approaches on the brink of madness and begins to talk with the boys so that together they explain what happens in each case. Many children know it, others ask.

Later the experimenter will make bubbles, more and more great, and until of strange forms: also he will engage in a dialog on that. The experiments are interesting, simple, accessible.

But it would seem that the experimenter spends too much kind time to his while the children hope. Note to silverplates it tired in a while. And the explanation does not unload the sufficient thing for the accumulated tension. Perhaps it would have to create some type of previous condition, with some of the experiments, so that the boys feel like part.
