Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
increases imagination and understanding
improves your listening skills
improves your own spoken accent
learn while on the move
reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Bricolage Production Company is a professional theatre company based in downtown Pittsburgh. Established in 2001 by Jeffrey Carpenter, it is located on Liberty Avenue in Pittsburgh's Cultural District in a space that was formerly a Turkish bathhouse. The company's mission is to use Pittsburgh's "distinctive resources" to create theatre that "stimulate[s] a heightened sense of involvement for the audience."
Bricolage has held readings and staged productions of numerous new works by playwrights on the Pittsburgh, national, and international theatre scene. Their immersive theatre piece STRATA was named a number one production of the year by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and was featured on the cover of American Theatre Magazine.Also part of their season are Midnight Radio, a series of live performances of radio scripts performed in front of an audience, and B.U.S. (Bricolage Urban Scrawl), an event in which playwrights, directors, and actors create productions of original short plays within a span of 24 hours. Bricolage has also acted as a host space for other performers and events, such as singer Daphne Alderson, playwright Gab Cody, comedian Gab Bonesso, performance artists Roberto Sifuentes and Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and a PlaySlam hosted by the Dramatists Guild. In 2010, the company introduced an arts education program entitled "Walk the Talk" in conjunction with its production of Speech $ Debate. This program allowed high school students to attend the production at the theatre and participate in discussions with community leaders as well as engage in activities related to playwriting and performing.Pittsburgh City Council declared July 10, 2012 "Bricolage Day" in honor of the company's contributions to Pittsburgh's cultural scene.
