Comedians, actors, and musicians are given a challenge: 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? We dont know either, but we intend to find out.Host Nat Towsen (Esquire, UCB) and musician/deckmeister Darren Solomon 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:Sebastian Conelli (HBO's Search Party)Jon Bander (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt)Manolo Moreno (Comedy Central, Dr. Gameshow)Tallie Medel (Cocoon Central Dance Team)Allison BishopMusic from Mikal AminNat Towsen is a standup comedian, writer, and actor from Manhattan, New York.
