Professor Goosechaser Presents The Amazing Exploding Girlfriend and Other Tales of 17th-Century Mad Science and Invention
Friday 14 August 2026 at 7:30pm
St Germans Priory
Payment on a donations / pay-what-you-feel basis
Professor Goosechaser returns to St Germans Priory with a new 17th-century show full of mad science, strange invention, heroic herbalists, medical controversy, possible witchcraft, and one very unusual exploding girlfriend.
The year is 1669, and it is time for the annual Professor Edvard von Goosechaser lecture. This time, the subject is mad scientists, foolhardy inventors, and heroic herbalists.
Find out which Royalist super-soldier liked to dabble in science, and how a hole in his head led to a spectacular innovation in fashion. Discover which inventor built the first ever lighthouse on a rock, in the middle of a war with France and during the worst storm in English history. Hear how an amateur herbalist challenged the might of the medical establishment and almost got himself arrested for witchcraft.
Which one of them had an amazing girlfriend, and why on earth did she explode?
Join the Professor to find out.
This show is a little longer than Professor Goosechaser’s previous St Germans appearance and will include an interval.
