Powerpoint Roulette
Doors 6:30 PM, show 7:00 PM Tickets $15 advance, $20 at the door About this showComedians and musicians must improvise a coherent presentation based on a set of slides that they have never seen before. All slides are taken from actual presentations given at business meetings and classrooms, but put together in bizarre and unlikely arrangements. How do you move from a slide depicting the annual increase in fertilizer production in Turkmenistan to a slide analyzing gender dynamics in Frasier? Find out with us, in the moment. Host Nat Towsen (The Tonight Show, Esquire) and musician/deckmeister Darren Solomon (Internet Explorers) unite with one purpose in mind: to bring you the best presentation-software-based live comedy experience ANYWHERE. PLUS: An actual scientist will have their actual, legit presentation “improved” before their very eyes by one of our guest improvisers! You won't want to miss it! Featuring… Nat Towsen is a standup comedian, writer, and actor from Manhattan, New York. He recently performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He has written for Esquire, The Onion, Vice, and CollegeHumor. He is a also a writer and editor at the creative tech company Botnik Studios. Towsen studied improvisation at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and the Peoples Improv Theatre in New York, the Bilingual Acting Workshop in Paris, and Emerson College in Boston. He is also a commercial and voiceover actor, represented by Cunningham Escott Slevin & Doherty. Darren Solomon is a Clio and Cannes Gold Lion award-winning composer, producer, bassist and keyboard player, based in Brooklyn. He has composed music for hundreds of TV commercials, toured with Ray Charles and Barry Manilow, and created the collaborative music websites In B Flat 2.0 and marker/music. He is a partner and creative director at Quiet City Music + Sound and a visiting affiliate artist at SUNY Purchase. Darren likes throwing his hands in the air, but draws the line at waving them like he just don't care. 21+ No outside food or drink allowed. Tickets may be refunded up to 24 hours before the event.
