After two years of touring our own little show throughout the US and Canada, bringing the joy of Calculus to over 20,000 individual students, math enthusiasts and curiosity seekers, Marc and I will be retiring from performance of “Calculus: The Musical!”

Don’t cry on your calculuator! This is a good thing!

We are CRAZY EXCITED to announce that the tour of “Calculus: The Musical” will now be produced by Know Theatre of Cincinnati, as part of their “Know-To-Go” education series! This means fantastic improvements to “Calculus: The Musical!” as it continues to tour under new, fresh artistic leadership.

The Know Theatre’s production will still be the comic “review” of the concepts and history of Calculus that Sadie and Marc brought to your school or event–but with big improvements. The tour will now feature two casts of professional actors/teachers–one which will tour throughout the Greater Cincinnati area, and one which will tour nationally. The new casts, along with the support base of a professional theatre company and its staff, will improve production values as well as increase availability as demand for performances continues to grow. Yours truly, Sadie Bowman, will be joining Know Theatre’s full-time staff in Cincinnati as Education Coordinator, so while business aspects will be routed through Know Theatre, I will remain your point of contact as we schedule performances both locally and nationally.

Marc and I, along with Know Theatre’s managers Eric Vosmeier (Managing Director) and Jason Bruffy (Artistic Director) look forward to continuing to put the “edge” back in “education” by keeping Calculus in the hearts of math lovers, theatre lovers, and everyone in between as “Calculus: The Musical!” continues to tour far and wide. Please join us in welcoming the new “Calcul-actors” to the family!

But don’t worry–Matheatre isn’t finished yet! Marc has been hard at work composing and recording a new album of all-original math music (available here soon!), and the long-hinted-at Geometry opera is still in the oven. We of Matheatre are delighted to pass the torch of touring on to the cast and staff of Know Theatre. I am especially excited in my new role with Know Theatre and to be able to continue working with all of you.

That said, we are now officially accepting booking requests for “Calculus: The Musical!” for the 2008-09 school year, so send me your inquiries soon to get on our calendar!

Thank you for your continued support–I look forward to continuing to engage and entertain you and your students as “Calculus: The Musical!” continues to grow and improve. I look forward to talking with you soon!

xoxo,

Sadie Bowman
