More Information

Join Professor Lemon Melon as she shares a unique perspective on dyslexia.

When Life Give You Melons is an educational, physical comedy, one-person production that attempts to demystify dyslexia. Professor Lemon Melon, an unusual sort of a teacher, explores dyslexic experiences, disects dyslexic thought processes, and determines the ture superpowers of dyslexia in this curious lecture. While struggling to maintain the demons of her educational past, Professor Lemon Melon will ask her 'learners' to join her on a journey into the neuroscience of the dyslexic brain to help answer the age-old question, 'What is dyslexia?!'.

(Not recommended for people under the age of 13)
