The Physics Show of the Uni Bonn
Our “Physikshow” aims to inspire children and adults alike to learn about physics. In our shows, we present entertaining and educational experiments in a clear and easy-to-understand way. The performances are generally intended for all children aged 12 to 99, but younger visitors often have just as much fun as the older ones.

Currently, several shows are coming up in different cities. Visit our “Dates & Tickets” page for an overview.
About us
The Physics Show was founded in December 2001 by Professor Herbert Dreiner and Michael Kortmann at the Physics Institute of the University of Bonn. Since 2002, the Physics Show has regularly performed numerous entertaining physics experiments, accompanied by an exciting storyline for young and old alike. Since 2004, the Particle Physics Show has been providing exciting insights into particle physics for a slightly older and international audience. In 2019, our “phyusical” debuted as – to our knowledge – the world’s first physics show musical. In addition to these three main shows, several special shows also regularly find their way onto the stage, such as the annual Christmas show.
The shows are written, organized, and performed independently and on a voluntary basis by the students. The Physics Show is led by Prof. Herbert Dreiner, Timo Poller, and Kristoffer Kerkhof from the Physics Institute.
