It’s the exciting return of the Monster Science Ensemble – Minnesota’s premier one-man comedy infotainment about monsters, teaming up to fight evil with some of the finest performers anywhere around – to in-person shows at the BLB theater!
For its post-quarantine debut, Reverend Matt is joined by the legendary Ariel Pinkerton, to explore the mermaid theme - as a global pattern of myth and its evolution over the years, and as a personal symbol of transformation. It’s a powerful and hilarious mixture of history, comedy, and profound storytelling.
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.
Ariel Pinkerton is a storyteller, actress, lighting designer, director and ne’er-do-well. She is Co-Artistic Director of Fortune’s Fool Theatre and a company member of Freshwater Theatre and Wonderlust Productions and a Co-owner of the Hard Times Café.
