THAT PHYSICS SHOW Begins Next Month Off-Broadway
What damage can a ping-pong ball do as it hurtles 700 miles an hour through a vacuum tube? Can you see the shape of sound in a dancing flame? "OH, NO! That bowling ball is going to smash him in the face"...but it didn't! These questions and many more will be answered when professional physics demonstrator David Maiullo brings his scientific "magic" from the world of physics to The Playroom Theater (151 West 46th Street - just east of Broadway) in That Physics Show for a limited engagement. Produced and directed by Eric Krebs, performances are set to begin on Wednesday, November 4th at 7:30pm. Opening night is set for Thursday, December 3rd. Performances will continue into 2016.
Based on the hundreds of physics experiments that are presented at physics conferences and in classrooms across the country, That Physics Show features segments on motion, momentum, vacuum, friction, energy, density, fluid motion, sound waves and sound vibration, light waves, temperature and many more from the world in which we live - a world controlled by physics. Mr. Maiullo has been a physics demonstrator at Rutgers University for over 20 years and most recently became a regular on "The Weather Channel" and a presenter at national physics festivals.
"I first saw David 15 years ago and started thinking that this was as entertaining as anything I have seen in the theater for a long time," says Krebs. "With That Physics Show, I am pursuing an interest in bringing the entertainment of live theater together with the excitement and wonderment of science. I think of That Physics Show as a cross between Stomp and Blue Man Group... with a little The Bubble Show thrown in."
The performance schedule for That Physics Show will be: Wednesday-Friday @ 7:30pm, Saturday @ 3pm & 7:30pm and Sunday at 3pm. PLEASE NOTE: There will be no performances on November 25 and 26.
All tickets are $30 and can be purchased online at www.ThatPhysicsShow.com or by calling 866-811-4111.
