Join us this Saturday for Ada and the Code Crusaders - The English Touring Opera 3:00 PM - 3:45 PM.
Mathematical superhero troupe, the Code Crusaders, are in desperate need of a new member. They travel through space and time and land in Victorian England and arrive at twelve year old Ada Lovelace’s house. But this can’t be right - Ada is just a little girl. Can this child really be a revolutionary mathematician?

Exploring the life, work and legacy of the world’s first computer programmer Ada Lovelace,

We are delighted to welcome back The English Touring Opera to Acomb Explore with this opera written especially for children. Ada and the Code Crusaders is a fun-filled, adventure-fuelled, participatory opera that brings out the scientist in us all.

Ada and the Code Crusaders is written and composed by Anna Pool, directed by Nel Crouch and designed by Ella Barraclough.

Recommended for ages 7 -11 years old, but suitable for the whole family.

Our this week is 'Chlorine' by Jade Song. 'Chlorine is a debut novel that blurs the line between a literary coming-of-age narrative and a dark unsettling horror tale, told from an adult perspective on the trials and tribulations of growing up in a society that puts pressure on young women and their bodies... a powerful, relevant novel of immigration, sapphic longing, and fierce, defiant becoming.'
