07/11 Monster Science First Thursdays - Ars Monstrum: Art of Monsters and Monsters of Art
Rev. Matt is joined by the incredible visual artist (and member of the Winding Sheet Outfit) Kristina Fjellman, to discuss the history of monsters in art, and the presence of monsters in the works of the modern masters! The relationship between art and monsters - each concept one of imagination - as it has evolved for actual thousands of actual years, and the continued interplay between them today! Plus jokes! And PowerPoint!
Reverend Matt – once called a combination of David Attenborough and Elvira, Mistress of the Dark in MPR – played by local comedian Matthew Kessen, is the star of “Reverend Matt’s Monster Science” (‘part science, part comedy, all monsters’), a multimedia series of deep studies of the lore of monsters, infused with comedy jokes. It has won a Golden Lanyard at the 2023 Minnesota Fringe Festival, Best Solo Show at the Tucson Fringe Festival twice, and Best of Minnesota at the 2020 MN Webfest. And it’s been called “effective, educational, funny, moving” by Cherry and Spoon, and Single White Fringe Geek said of it, “I could not stop grinning the whole time Rev. Matt was talking.”
Tickets are $12 in Advance / $15 at the Door. Doors open at 6PM.
Our full restaurant and bar service is available in the theater! Order from your seat and enjoy the show, we'll take care of the rest.
