Beakman on the Brain

From the Emmy Award winning, children's science TV show, Beakman's World, the entertaining and lively scientist Beakman (Paul Zaloom) will tour a brand new production, ‘Beakman on the Brain!’ Everything you every wanted to know about the Brain but were thinking too much to ask!

With plenty of audience participation and his wacky sense of humor, Beakman employs a series of large scale, fun, and very visual demonstrations to illustrate how the brain works. Have you ever wondered how we think, feel, smell and see? What makes us cry, laugh, smile and sneeze? How our brains can get fooled - or the effect of music and art on our brains? Beakman will address the neuroscience of the brain in a fun, wacky and exploratory way for kids and adults alike. Be ready to be brain teased!
