PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The nation's No. 1 television franchise comes to stage of the Colonial theater on Saturday, Feb. 28, when Mad Science presents "CSI: LIVE!" an interactive journey through the world of crime-scene investigations.
When a crime is committed at the Las Vegas premiere of the Max Spade Magic Show, the CSI team springs into action. Sydney Mathis and David Hart play the roles of CSI investigators and are on the case, assisted by supervisor Gil Grissom through a live video connection from the Las Vegas Crime Lab.
Audience members will jump on stage and become part of the action as witnesses, suspects and CSI recruits. Together, they will use their logic and forensic know-how to uncover hidden details, investigate the evidence and test their theories.
Whether it's analyzing mysterious gasses, launching projectiles into a target, or firing a laser beam across the stage, the CSI recruits will have to be on their toes to help solve the crime before it's too late. How was the crime committed? Who is guilty? The audience will discover the answers.
Mad Science is an international production group based in Montreal that has developed more than 300 hours of original science content and 2,000 interactive activities. It conducts large-scale touring shows and gives a quarter million presentations a year.
Performances on Feb. 28 will be at 2 and 7. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the ticket office at 111 South St. weekdays from 10 to 5 and Saturdays 10-2, by calling 413-997-4444 or at www.TheColonialTheatre.org. Performance sponsored by Greylock Federal Credit Union.
