“I personally guarantee that if you are not completely satisfied with my school assembly show, I will refund 100% of the fee.” - Alex Zerbe

A Science Show with an Explosive Mix of Juggling and Fun!

Alex Zerbe is the world’s only professional Zaniac. He is a two-time Guinness World Record holder who uses his dynamic stage presence to excite students about science. His newest and greatest school assembly program is Gravity Catastrophe. The Zaniac takes a tornado of juggling skills, combines it with a whirlwind of science knowledge and sends it crashing directly into your student’s brain. With programs customized for grades Kindergarten - 8th, your students will learn about...

  • Acceleration of Gravity
  • Center of Mass
  • Simple Machines
  • The Scientific Method
  • Centripetal Force
  • Angular Momentum
  • The Solar System

Your students will be captivated as The Zaniac transforms an audience volunteer into a model of the inner solar system (asteroid belt included), juggles atoms with his feet, and catches a shovel with his face to demonstrate center of mass.

This interactive performance will spark your students' curiosity about science while keeping them thoroughly engaged. Click here to get more information about bringing Gravity Catastrophe to your school.

I would hire him again in a heart beat!"

“His performances are high energy, fun for all ages and contain important messages about books, stories, reading and libraries. I hired him for a series of in-school assembly programs that are part of a promotion for our “Ready, Set, Read” series.
Not only are the performances outstanding, but Alex demonstrates a professional attitude, has good business sense and understands that details like being reliable, communicating and providing excellent promotional materials are also part of the job.
Please feel free to contact me if you need any additional information, but be forewarned, I may just “gush” about Alex.”
