    A Day in Pompeii Museum of Science, Boston A Day in Pompeii Presented by Museum of Science. Boston at Museum of Science, Boston October 2, 2011-February 12, 2012 Get a glimpse of daily life in Pompeii, one of Imperial Rome's most cosmopolitan cities. Hundreds of artifacts — including body casts of the volcano's victims — bring to light the vibrancy of this bustling resort town, but the darkening skies ahead and violent sounds of Vesuvius spewing ash and debris signal imminent danger. Advance purchase highly recommended.

      Carol Lynn Alpert’s THE AMAZING NANO BROTHERS JUGGLING SHOW was conceived (in collaboration with juggler/comedians Dan Foley and Joel Harris) to teach audiences painlessly about nanotechnology. Her clever script has a prologue, three acts and a finale, all of which fit into forty thrilling minutes. Kids will love the shenanigans and adults will come away knowing exactly what makes up DNA ---and how a scanning probe microscope works---and it won’t hurt a bit. In fact, you’ll leave the museum feeling better, since laughter is, as they say, the best medicine. Collapse

      Don't pass up this show. It is funny, entertaining and engaging for little ones and adults alike while teaching us all about the world of nanometer scale. Its not hi-tech, it is just two extraordinarily talented guys telling a story with juggling props and antics all designed to educate and entertain an audience from the very, very young to the very, very old. The kind of old fashion person to person entertainment and education that truly imparts knowledge, without you even realizing it. Collapse

      We all loved this show. From my youngest at 3, who now talks about how everything is made from atoms, to my mother-in-law at 80 who was laughing throughout the performance. The Nano brothers made the science accessible through humor and fun analogies without dumbing it down. Highly recommended for everyone. Collapse

      I am an adult who saw the show yesterday at the Science Museum in Boston with 3 other adults. We laughed so much and we learned so much about atoms, and more. We came for the juggling and enjoyed it, but it became secondary to the information being provided in such an entertaining and helpful way. The kids in the room were getting a kick out of the show too...getting the jokes completely. You did a great job! (I am an educator of children and adults too, so I appreciate your talents.)

      This show at the Boston Museum of Science was truely "amazing". It combined humor, great skill (juggling, riding a unicycle, slapstick comedy) with scientific information about nanos and nano technology. It was both funny and informative, and appealed to both children (of all ages) and adults. It was a great surprise to come upon this while taking our 6 year old grandson to the Museum and I highly recommend it! Collapse
