The Clitoral Chronicles

This National Science Week, we’re lifting the hood on the most neglected organ in biology: the clitoris! Join us for a live show that’s equal parts hilarious and enlightening. Through immersive performances, outrageous anatomical costumes, and wild but true tales from the animal kingdom, you'll learn what you should have learned in sex-ed, including what the clitoris actually looks likes, where it came from, and why is important. By looking to science and the world around us, we will celebrate and empower perspectives that have historically been dismissed and literally written out of scientific discourse. Come for the laughs, leave informed and inspired, and ready to challenge tired old myths!
