As with most of Cox’s work, the new show aims to entertainingly ask the big questions of science and explain the intricacies of our “golden age of discovery,” where we have proven the existence of the Higgs Boson, detected gravitational waves and have credible theories regarding the universe’s very beginnings. “We know vastly more about the universe at a fundamental level than we did a decade ago, and the universe is turning out to be stranger and more fascinating than we could have imagined,” said Professor Cox. “In this tour I will describe these recent discoveries, and discuss what they mean for our understanding of the universe, its origin and evolution,” Cox added. “But I also want to discuss how we could possibly know such things.” Playing the Adelaide Festival Centre Theatre on August 6, Cox will be joined in this entertaining endeavour by Robin Ince, the British comedian, writer and co-host of The Inifinity Monkey Cage. Tickets will go on sale as of 9am, Monday, May 9, and range between $80 to $195.
