Science Riot
It's Real Science.
And It's Real Funny.
Science Riot is a non-profit organization dedicated to making science relatable through humor. We train real STEM professionals in comedy and communication, culminating in hilarious TedTalk like comedy shows.
We aim to entertain and make science fun again. While our audiences have a great (and educational!) time, better yet our performers become better communicators. From describing their work at dinner parties, to presentations and science writing, they say the skills they learn extend way beyond the stage.
Check out a show and who knows – maybe you’ll be on stage in the next one!
