What it is

This page is for the evening (7.00pm) performance. For the matinee performance, please visit this page.

Back by popular demand, the Ri Demo Team and Innovator in Residence David Ricketts present their reimagining of the Faraday classic Christmas Lecture The chemical history of a candle.

Originally delivered by Faraday in a series of 6 lectures, the chemical history was the most popular Christmas lecture Faraday gave, with over 700 people in attendance when he last delivered it in 1861.

The RI demo team takes a modern interpretation of Faraday's original lecture and demonstration, to deliver Faradays' original series into a single lecture.
