(Telegraph-UK) Joe Pinkstone - The Science Museum: The Live Stage Show performance at the New Wimbledon Theater in London was disrupted on Tuesday when protesters, orchestrated by Parents for Palestine, unfurled a banner as others got on the stage, chanting and waving scarves. The protesters said they were asking the Science Museum "to drop its sponsorship deal with Adani Green Energy," a subsidiary of the Adani Group, which they said manufactures drones with Israeli arms companies. One parent in attendance, named Rose, said, "We're sitting there getting ready for the show and then there's this lady with a mask over her face and then she starts chanting. And then after that, I see a big banner drop from the top of the theater and then from that everything is just disrupted. There are parents with their children next to me and their kids are crying their eyes out because it's quite scary. Security has come along and ushered some people out, but then some other people have got up on the stage."
