Liverpool electro-pop trio Stealing Sheep present a theatrical-musical-dance-art spectacular, in tribute to the electronic music pioneer Delia Derbyshire. With technical wizardry from experimental performance producers The Kazimier. Expect a hexagonal stage, sci-fi sunglasses and sparkly suits.

The event will be hosted by BBC Radio 6 Music DJ, producer and broadcaster Nemone. She'll be joined in-conversation by Stealing Sheep's Becky Hawley and Emily Lansley, comedian (and Delia Derbyshire fan) Helen Keen and lecturer in Sound Production at the University of York and Chair of the Audio Engineering Society Dr Mariana Lopez.

About The Hexagon Experiment

Music, art and science collide in an explosive celebration of women’s creativity

A six-part series of 'Friday night experiments' featuring live music, conversations and original commissions from pioneering women at the forefront of music, art and science.

Inspired by the creativity that led to the discovery of the Nobel-Prize winning ‘wonder material’ graphene, The Hexagon Experiment brings together the North’s most exciting musicians and scientists for six free events - from music made by robots to a spectacular tribute to an unsung heroine.

Presented by Manchester based creative music charity Brighter Sound and the National Graphene Institute at The University of Manchester, as part of the Great Exhibition of the North 2018.

The Hexagon Experiment is part of Both Sides Now - a three-year initiative run by Brighter Sound to support, inspire and showcase women in music across the North of England.
