Interactive, hands-on live show added to Miller Auditorium lineup
The show has added 24 cities to its 2017 tour and will be in Kalamazoo for one night at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29. The spring tour performed in 40 cities including New York City, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Detroit and Los Angeles.
Savage and Stevens have joined forces to bring this one-of-a-kind, interactive, hands-on theatrical experience to cities across the U.S. They're master explainers, bringing along their toys, tools and mind-blowing demonstrations. Audiences are engaged and enthusiastic test subjects and participants as they spend two hours laughing, learning and exploring.
Savage
One of the most highly regarded and watched series on the Discovery Channel, "MythBusters" ran for 14 years. Co-executive produced and co-hosted by Savage, the show mixed scientific method with problem-solving curiosity and ingenuity to confirm or bust myths and popular misconceptions. The show created its own signature style of explosive experimentation. Today, in addition to creating content for his website tested.com, Savage has become a proponent for making, working with the White House to encourage kids and adults alike to get their hands dirty. He is also a regular at conventions across the country.
Stevens
Stevens' passion for learning, science and making curiosity contagious led him to create Vsauce in 2010. The YouTube channel captures attention with fun questions like, "What Color Is A Mirror?" "Can You Count Past Infinity?" and "Why Are Things Creepy?" Now reaching a collective 17 million subscribers with video views in excess of 2 billion, Vsauce has grown into one of the largest educational networks on the web. Last year, it received the Webby for Best Science and Education Network.
