Stand-Up Science Presents: Volcano

Ben Miller—The Asper Centre for Theatre & Film (U of W)

Ben Miller uses a bit of self-deprecating humour to talk about life, his Hawai’i experience, and volcanoes. This show is both factual and funny. It was around 25% science and 75% comedy, with most of the science leading into more comedy.

His crowd work was pretty darn good, especially for an 11:15 am Thursday show. He uses a video slide show to accompany his performance which helps make the science part more interesting as well as show off his photoshop skills for some of the visual humour.
