Comedy For The Curious

Can we do life better using science? Join marine biologist turned award-winning comedian Robyn Perkins for her world touring show of stand-up comedy and science chat.

Comedy for the Curious is a science comedy panel show that explores human behaviour. This show, we will be looking at bad habits. Learn why some people can't manage to stop biting their nails, while others can manage to drop life-long habits in a day.  We'll answer questions you never knew you had!

Each hilariously refreshing show features comedians and/or scientific experts. Think QI meets Mock the Week!
