Do you love science? Do you love comedy? This show is for you! From a robotic stand-up comedian headliner to electronic music played on a novel instrument, this comedy variety show has everything needed to delight and entertain your inner nerd. Join us for a collision of the vaudevillian spirit of old with the technologies of modern-day. 

Show producer Dr. Naomi Fitter has opened for Bil Dwyer, Laurie Kilmartin, and Whitney Cummings and performed in the All Jane Comedy Festival. When she's not telling jokes, she spends her time studying human-robot interaction as an Assistant Professor in the School of Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing at Oregon State University.

But the excitement doesn't stop there - the performance features nationally and internationally renowned acts from Sarah Hagen, Katie Nguyen, Chet Udell, and Bert Walpack.

Sarah Hagen is a Eugene-based comedian who inflicts her unique brand of nerdy humor on audiences across the Pacific Northwest. In addition to traditional stand-up, Sarah performs musical comedy and storytelling. Her festival appearances include the Ha Ha Harvest Festival, Northwest Women's Comedy Festival, and Savage Henry Comedy Festival. Another multitalented lineup member, Sarah holds a PhD in mathematics and teaches math at Davidson Academy.
