Upcoming San Francisco Shows
January 24th, 2011
Science Comedian Street Team: Activate! Please forward via email, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, telegraph, semaphore, smoke signals, and telepathy.
I have two(2) big San Francisco shows coming up – plus, a bonus appearance at Ignite SF. One show is this week, part of SF Sketchfest – the others are just around the corner: February 8 and 9. Details and links… to more details and links:
This Wednesday, January 26, see two one-man shows for the price of one. At the Eureka Theatre, comedian and cartoonist Michael Capozzola will present his food-themed multimedia show “Regurgitated,” and I’ll be doing my latest science comedy: “Spontaneous Emissions.” Joining us will be the amazing Mike Meehan for a special cameo.
Wednesday, February 9, join me at the San Francisco Punch Line Comedy Club for an evening of science humor – again, “Spontaneous Emissions.” My good friend Ngaio Bealum will join me as a guest performer. Call the club and make reservations in advance! This show will sell out.
And for something a little different… the 2nd Annual Global Ignite Week is coming. I’ll be participating in the San Francisco event at Public Works on Tuesday, February 8. Ignite is an evening of 5-minute talks with 20 slides each, that auto-advance every 15 seconds. Presentations are by artists, technologists, and other thinkers – designed to be of interest to geeks. 16 speakers! A huge variety of topics. My presentation will be called “How Wine Saved the World.” True story. Be there!
And, seriously – even if you’re not in the SF Bay Area, please forward this link to someone who is! Thanks!
