The SCIENCE of EWW!
Felix Albert Riley Tallman, a.k.a Professor F.A.R.T., is a world-renowned scientist, specialising in both the human brain and the airwaves. Currently, he is touring the globe on a bicycle, presenting mini street lectures on “the art of farting”, “yodeling for beginners”, “99 uses for unwanted snot”, and “brain surgery for dummies”. Join Professor F.A.R.T. as he expertly unpacks a staggering amount of quirky and whacky facts you didn’t think you needed to know.
The SCIENCE of EWW! is an hilarious walkabout act, complete with live experiments, hu- morous songs, and audience participation. The SCIENCE of EWW! is a funny act suitable for all the family.
