The Encyclopedia Show is a live literary variety show with unrivaled nerd-core charm. Accredited by the Institute of Human Knowledge and Hygiene, the show commissions exceptional local talent, nationally touring artists, and renowned thinkers that have included Lynda Barry, Sonia Sanchez, Paul Sereno, Bill Ayers, and Marc Smith.

The Encyclopedia Show features spoken word, monologues, storytelling, live music, comedy, and yes, even actual experts. This month’s installment features freshly created art on the subject of Skyscrapers, with a diverse, brilliant line-up of music, writing, and miscellany.

Recorded Thursday, October 4, 2012 at the Vittum Theater.
