Scientists doing comedy? You must be joking.

Science Riot is an event series adapted from a popular UK program billed as “a thinking person’s comedy night.” We give local experts a crash course in standup then throw them on stage to deliver their comedy talk! Want to see great amateur comedy and learn something new in the process? Come to show your support as they talk to a room full of strangers for the first time ever.

Date: Friday, September 21st, 2018    This show is for adult audiences only.
