Equal parts interactive science, comedy, and personal empowerment messages, Doktor Kaboom: Under Pressure! clearly illustrates physical science concepts which are also metaphors for some of the real-life mental and emotional pressures we all experience. If you’ve seen Doktor Kaboom, you know he is as passionate about empowering individuals as he is about science.  Always on the lookout for opportunities to inspire audiences to be their best selves Dr. K elevates volunteers to being the heroes of the moment.  In Under Pressure!, Kaboom will validate the pressures some students may feel, and share tools and life lessons as resources for dealing with the difficulties that face us all.
