Publish or Perish & Schrödinger's Hat

Rising Ape Collective presents a double bill with a difference - a night of science comedy and interactive theatre, the likes of which Bristol's never seen before...

Rising Ape Presents: Publish or Perish

The choose-your-own-comedy-adventure from locals Rising Ape, where the whole audience gets to play together.

You and your friends take control of a helpless young scientist. Your task? Make it through the strangest day of their life in the weird world of Academia, guided by the all-knowing game masters.

Mashing up live action role play, daft songs, a fieldtrip-full of improvisers and an unhealthy dose of audience suggestions, surviving the sci-fantasy world of Publish or Perish ultimately depends on you - choose wisely!

“I loved being able to vote on the outcomes and the actors’ amazing ability to make things up on the spot."

"I’ve never laughed so much, for so long"

"It brought an audience of strangers together in a way that I didn’t think was possible!”

Special guest show: Schrödinger's Hat

The Bristol premiere of comedy science showcase - Schrödinger's Hat, the show that fuses together real science and improvised comedy theatre.

At the heart of the performance is an engaging and informative talk from a mystery local researcher.

The Free Radicals players won't have heard the talk before and, without rehearsal or script, they take its themes to produce a truly astonishing comedic journey of the imagination.
