Stand-Up Science Presents: Volcano
by Ben Miller Ben Miller - New York, NY
V.10 - The Asper Centre for Theatre & Film (U of W)
What happens when a comedian walks into a volcano?
In 2023, Ben Miller was the artist-in-residence at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park, the first stand-up comedian ever selected. This was probably a terrible idea on their part.

Come watch this show where scientist-turned-comedian Ben Miller explores volcanology, entomology, Hawaiian history, cats, cookies, and more. And yes, that photo is real. Ben has made people laugh in front of a burning lava lake and he is not afraid of you.

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.
