History
The first Cosmic Cabaret was a solo multi-media musical on the Big Bang written and performed by Lynda in 1995 at the ClimateTheater, San Francisco. In 1997, Lynda created the Physics Chanteuse and has since performed custom cabarets for scientists around the world. In 1998, Lynda wrote a Cosmic Cabaret for a general audience and performed it at the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles. During 1998-1999 Lynda produced and hosted 5 Cosmic Cabarets at the San Francisco State University Planetarium. These cabarets featured guest science entertainers such as Joel Martin Kohn, Dr. Carl Winter, The Bungee Jumping Cows and Ordinary Insect. Lynda and her Cosmic Cabarets have attracted a flurry of media attention from the New York Times, the LA Times, Good Morning America, NPR's To the Best of our Knowledge and Physics Today, to name a few. According to People Magazine, "Williams puts the fizz back in physics."
