What to Expect

You've got a school to run.  The last thing you need is an assembly-day surprise.  Here's exactly what to expect when you book Broken Beakers - from confirmation to curtain call.

Before the show:

Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll send you a brief pre-event questionnaire to fill out.

 

That’s it! No lengthy planning calls, no complicated logistics. We’ve done this before.

What we bring:

You don’t need to lift a finger for setup! We arrive with everything we need:

 

- Our own PA system — every student hears clearly, even from the back row

- Projector and screen — no fighting with your AV cart

- All experiment materials — fully prepped and ready to go

- Safety gear — eye protection and gloves (show-dependent)

 

*Note: We secure cables with gaffer tape for safety. Just let us know in advance if you’d prefer we use an alternative method.*

Day-of timeline:

60-90 Minutes before show — arrival, check-in, and setup

Showtime —  first 45 minute performance

Short break — transition between student groups

Second performance — second performance, the same show with fresh energy

After the show — approximately 30 minutes for cleanup

After the show:

Learning doesn’t stop when the gym empties out. After every assembly, teachers can access free follow-up activities and resources on our Teacher Resources page!

Snow days:

We know school schedules are unpredictable. If a snow day or emergency forces a reschedule, simply email us and we’ll find a new date as quickly as possible. Your $100 deposit moves with your booking — no penalties, no hassle.
