Festival of the Spoken Nerd, the trio of insatiably sci-curious comedians
coming to a theatre near you.
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Nerds are touring from September to December with an
all-new night of wit and wonder: “<a href="http://festivalofthespokennerd.com/around-uk" target="_blank">Just For Graphs</a>”. Expect stand-up
mathematics, scientifically accurate songs and even a few charts on fire in a
spectacular graphic finale - where the audience become a giant musical
instrument, complete with retro fax machine solo.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Their 2014 “Full Frontal Nerdity” tour got rave reviews from
nerds and non-nerds alike, and is <a href="http://festivalofthespokennerd.com/dvd/" target="_blank">available now on DVD and download</a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">**** “Great, funny, clever... even the heckles at this
terrific show are smart” - The Scotsman</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">**** “The nerd show to end all nerd shows” - The List</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This new show for 2015 is another great night of
entertainment and we’re hoping to “spread the nerd” far and wide. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The closest date to you is:</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Friday 4 December, Theatre Royal, Margate</b><br></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span> </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’d love the venue to be filled with
people who appreciate a unique mixture of comedy, theatre and unashamed
nerdiness, and we hope you’ll join us: a trip to the show could be a
great social event for KLUG. Full details are below: do feel
free to
cut, paste or forward this email to any colleagues, students, friends
and
family who may like to hear about it.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The science comedy phenomenon are back, and this time
they’re Off The Chart! </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Following their sell-out 2014 tour “Full Frontal Nerdity”,
Festival of the Spoken Nerd are on the road again this Autumn with
graph-a-minute fun on an unprecedented linear scale.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Stand-up mathematician Matt Parker (BBC2 Things You Need To
Know, Discovery Channel You Have Been Warned) experiments maestro Steve Mould
(ITV I Never Knew That About Britain, BBC The One Show) and geeky songstress
Helen Arney (BBC Radio4 Infinite Monkey Cage, BBC2 Coast) mix astonishing
science with statistically significant comedy – and maybe a few things that go
BANG! </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this all-new show for 2015 you’ll find mind-blowing
mathematics, scientifically accurate songs and even a few charts on fire in a
spectacular graphic finale - where the audience become a giant musical
instrument, complete with retro fax machine solo.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With over a million views on YouTube for their experiments,
songs and stand-up, this is your chance to see the “resplendently geeky trio”
(The Times) Excel themselves in an unforgettable night of comedy and curiosity.
Will they stay on trend, or lose the plot completely?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Recommended age 15+. Contains strong language and graph-ic
material.</p>
