About this Event
Come celebrate our newest Distillations podcast season, American Vice. From cigarettes to alcohol to fireworks, this season is all about our relationship with risk, how science plays a role in it, and how it’s shaped the American experience.
And to do it, we're partnering with our friends at the Crossroads Comedy Theater Company to bring you a special edition of Study Hall: Comedy Inspired By Lectures. Join us for an experience unlike you have seen before – or will see again! Enjoy short talks about topics from our podcast episodes, after which Crossroads' cast of amazing improvisers will use what they learned (or didn’t learn) to create hilarious scenes right before your eyes!
You’ll learn, laugh, and leave without homework.
The museum will stay open until 6 pm, at which time the show will begin. The event is free, but registration is required. Light refreshments will be served.
