Starring Math
A monthly series hosted by Dr. Arthur Benjamin
(online)
MoMath’s 2025–2026 Visiting Professor Dr. Arthur Benjamin curates a monthly dive into the many ways mathematics inspires — and hides inside — film, theater, music, magic, juggling, and more. Each session features an hour-long conversation with Dr. Benjamin and special guests. Some months you’ll watch the selected movie or performance on your own, then join a lively discussion; other months the performer will appear live, ready to share insights and answer questions. Discover how creative minds weave math into stories, staging, and spectacle, and leave with fresh ways to see the connections between performance and mathematics.
