The Catastrophist

THE CATASTROPHIST by Lauren Gunderson
Lauren Gunderson returns with a time-jumping tale based on the life and work of virologist Nathan Wolfe, named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in the World for his work tracking viral pandemics, who also happens to be her husband. Whether it’s a new virus or the treasures of your own family, hunting viruses from the jungles of Cameroon to the basement of the CDC, hear this blazingly intelligent, wryly witty and warm look at the thrill of discovery, as Nathan Wolfe tracks the threats that come from without and within.
An interactive deep dive into the profundities of scientific exploration and the harrowing realities of facing your own mortality, The Catastrophist is a theatrical experience built of and for this moment in time which also contains adult themes, adult language, and SCIENCE!
The Catastrophist is showing at the New Prospect Theatre on May 8-10 at 7:30 pm and on May 11th at 2:00 pm. Tickets are $15 at the door. Produced by BTG Satellites. Directed by Shawn Fuller and starring Spenser Stumpf.
