Brainiac Live! to run in the West End

Brainiac Live! will run in the West End this July.

Based on the iconic TV series Brainiac, which explores the weirdest and wackiest aspects of scientific exploration, the show has been touring across the globe since 2008.

The stage show's director Andy Joyce said: "After performing the show across the UK and everywhere from Abu Dhabi to Australia, we are so excited about bringing the show back to the heart of London."

The TV show first aired in 2003 on Sky One, and was initially presented by Richard Hammond, Charlotte Hudson and Jon Tickle. It was cancelled after 58 episodes in 2008.

Brainiac Live! runs at the Garrick Theatre on Charing Cross Road from 31 July to 1 September.
