History, comedy and science connect at FringeArts

And they can even be funny with a little help from the professor (me). Come see for yourself this week.

Because despite what you think, history, science, and professors are (well, can be) funny.

What makes this so funny? Asteroid! member Jessica Ross says that "it's like taking the most interesting class in school and then getting to see the class clowns make fun of it." For the improv artists, the format is a challenge they enjoy. As Asteroid!'s Lora Magaldi told me: "It's a great way to learn to listen to information because you need to remember as many details as possible and then be able to extract them over the course of the show." And I can tell you that the whole troupe are true improve/comedy professionals, and it has been a joy to work with them.

And don't be late to Study Hall!

Asteroid! is Bert Archer, Luke Field, AJ Horan, Brent Knobloch, Lora Magaldi, Jessica Ross, Aaron Unice and Caitlin Weigel joined for Study Hall by Professor Michael Yudell. Directed by Mike Marbach.
