MONOTONY! Opens 11/17 At Caveat

Monotony! is the only show that dares let your favorite comedians and storytellers go deep on their weird obsessions with seemingly boring things. Their passion and (lets face it) disturbing breadth of knowledge on topics like The Science of Urinal Cakes and The History of the Rubber Duck will leave you laughing -- and possibly leaving with a brand new obsession of your own.

Hosted by Raj Sivaraman, a Jeopardy! runner-up, writer, comedian, scientist, and co-host of the Universe City podcast, which breaks down scientific papers for mainstream audiences. He has performed in several festivals all over the country and presented his research at as many international scientific conferences. This month's featured guests include Selena Coppock (Red Oaks), Obehi Janice (TED Talks), Mike Lebovitz (Last Comic Standing), Alison Leiby (President Show), Joe Rumrill (Special Without Brett Davis), Matthew Schechter (Interior Foliage Design), and Dulcé Sloan.

CAVEAT is a downtown venue that puts on kick-ass, smart events. We're redefining the boundary between intellect and entertainment. When the thirst for knowledge hits, you don't have to sit at home watching TED Talks or binge-reading Wikipedia: this is a home for people who love learning, playing, and getting tipsy. Come for the oddball programming - stay for the beer, food and curious company.
