Festival Of The Spoken Nerd: You Can't Polish a Nerd

Festival Of The Spoken Nerd: You Can't Polish a Nerd

Show type: Tour

Starring: Helen Arney

The science comedy phenomenon are back on tour. Join stand-up mathematician Matt Parker, TV experiments maestro Steve Mould and award-winning geek songstress Helen Arney at the ultimate show for nerds and non-nerds.

Since their last tour, the “resplendently geeky trio” (The Times) have featured on BBC2’s QI, created a genuinely “experimental” comedy show for BBC Radio 4 and played the Hammersmith Apollo with Professor Brian Cox, while Steve and Helen have written the first Festival of the Spoken Nerd book: The Element In The Room.



You Can’t Polish A Nerd will see Helen, Matt and Steve putting the 'oooh' into zoology, the 'fun' into fundamental theorem of calculus and the 'recursion' into recursion.



Featuring a veritable Periodic Table of new science, songs, and spreadsheets, this show will tickle your ribs and light your Bunsen burner. Full Frontal Nerdity guaranteed!
