During the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2010 I'm going to be performing for three nights as part of the Free Fringe where I'll be sharing the stage with the excellent real-life rocket scientist Dr Sophia Khan (at NASA she discovered three galaxies!) for a show about Everything In The Universe.
We first met when I was developingIt Is Rocket Science! and first worked together when Sophia took part in a Q&A session about space science after a sell-out performance of the show at the Science Museum’s Dana Centre in 2008.
Keen and Khan: Starstruck! will be on at 9.35pm in the Speakeasy at The Voodoo Rooms on 9th, 10th and 11th of August 2010. And as it's free, you don't need to reserve tickets - just come along!
