What if you were at a TED talk about CHAOS THEORY THAT SUDDENLY WENT
WILDLY OFF THE RAILS?
A super serious lecture about CHAOS THEORY EXPLODES INTO A SERIES OF
INTERACTIVE GAMES AND EXPERIMENTS INSPIRED BY THE SCIENCE OF CHAOS
THEORY, Jurassic Park, and the ultimate CHAOS: middle school crushes.
Your guide, chaologist Dr. Genevieve Saoch, whose personal life
continuously interferes with her objectivity as a chaologist, invites
you to play through a series of multiplayer experiments modeled on the
butterfly effect, fractals, and deterministic CHAOS, ultimately
inviting you to apply the formulas that explain CHAOS *THEORY* to the
CHAOS OF YOUR *actual* life. You've got nothing to lose but the
illusion of order in your life!
Doors 6:30 PM, show 7:00 PM.
Tickets $25 in advance, $30 at the door.

thoughtfully structured game-play for nudging audiences to explore
their wishes and desires, push past boundaries, connect with everyone
around them, and be open to anything.” - Best NYC Comedy

meetups... Creane delivers a phenomenal performance, as the initially
mousy doctor transforms into a crazed being, full of ecstatic and
infectious joy… Wonderful to behold” - No Proscenium
