The Chemical Heritage is trying to sneak in a “bonus” science cafe (which I hope doesn’t detract from Colin Purrington’s event on the ninth) with what promises to be a cool change of pace, a dramatic presentation by the Flashpoint Theater Company‘s presentation of Boom.
Flashpoint Theatre Company
Noah Herman, director
Derick Loafmann, Melissa Lynch, and Susan Giddings, actors“Dramatic Evolution: Bringing Science to the Stage”
On a dark night in a subterranean lab, a feisty student and a mild-mannered biologist meet for a casual encounter … but end up changing the course of humanity. That’s the story behind Flashpoint Theatre Company’s production of boom. Playwright Peter Sinn Nachtrieb is a former biology major who often examines science through the lens of theatre. The darkly funny play imagines the creation story of the next form of life on Earth. For this bonus edition of Science on Tap, meet the directors and actors who are bringing science to theater-goers. Presented by the Chemical Heritage Foundation.
As always, Science on Tap is held at National Mechanics, 6pm.
