Young EinsteinDate: Friday 14 February 2014 Time: 6.30pm Cost: Free Rated: PG

Yahoo Serious plays Albert Einstein, a Tasmanian growing up on an apple farm where he spends most of his time listening to music and thinking about the universe. Albert comes up with a scientific theory every action has an equal and opposite reaction. To further his scientific prowess with his newly discovered formula, the government approaches him and asks him for the formula which he agrees to hand over. Marie (a French Nobel Prize winner of physics) questions his decision but he innocently states, if you can’t trust the governments who can you trust?
