Presented with support from Peninsula Bottling Co. Doktor Kaboom! Look Out! Science is Coming!

Description

Grab your lab coats and safety goggles; this one-man show can be explosive! ‘Part Mister Wizard, part Mr. Rogers’. That’s how one parent described Doktor Kaboom after seeing this fantastic live comedy show. And that’s about as good a description (and the best compliment) we can think of. Doktor Kaboom keeps his crowds riveted with interest and rolling with laughter. This is no patronizing ‘magic’ show. This is topnotch comedy from a seasoned professional. The good Doktor Kaboom! takes his audience on an educational tour of the modern scientific method, using humor and comedy while demonstrating spectacular applications of the physical sciences. Topics covered include: safety; pressure and force; simple machines; velocity; application of science to everyday life; the scientific method (hypothesis and experimentation); multiple experimentation; constant discovery of new information and data; definitions: chemical reactions, exothermic, external and chemical formula; mass; air pressure and demonstration vs. experimentation. Best for grades 4-8 and family programming. This show is 60 minutes, no intermission.
