🎉Announcing: The Wonders 200 - presented by UCL Engineering
A perfectly-engineered night out, where science meets comedy, music and more.

We're pleased to invite you to The Wonders 200, the bicentenary edition of UCL Engineering's award-winning live theatre showcase.

A special guest host is comedian, actor, writer and UK science entertainment pioneer Robin Ince (Nine Lessons and Carols for Curious People, The Infinite Monkey Cage). This 90-minute show offers a glimpse into the breadth of UCL's engineering science - from crime-fighting technology and materials science, to nature-inspired engineering and tomorrow's robotics - all delivered with a healthy dose of showbiz sparkle and surprises.

Come early: from 5:00pm, join us for The Wonders 200 Interactive, an exhibition of engineering wonders in the Bloomsbury Studio. Spaces are limited and allocated first come, first served. An evening of inspiration, innovation and laughter awaits - don't miss it.

Tickets start from £8 and include a complimentary drink on arrival.
