shows
Bubbledad loves bubbles.
He loves big bubbles. He loves small bubbles. He loves seeing the colors shift and change in the sunlight. He loves seeing the smiles on the faces of the people who see his bubbles. He loves putting people inside bubbles. He loves being Bubbledad.
Bubbledad brings his unbridled passion for bubbles to every performance.
Whether its a school, camp, library, county fair, or just messing around in his backyard, Bubbledad puts his heart into every bubble. Let him unbridle his passion for your audience. It's pretty intense. And magical.
performances
indoor shows
For his indoor shows, Bubbledad (performer/educator Chris Catanese) creates a magical bubble-scape with bubbles of all shapes and sizes. Chris's character Bubbledad is all about DIY. He loves to interact with the kids and encourages them to experiment with bubbles on their own. Through bubbly magic tricks, Bubbledad covers the science of how bubbles are formed as well as basic geometry concepts (2D vs 3D shapes, circles/spheres.) He finishes by putting a few lucky kids INSIDE a bubble!
Indoor shows are best suited for kids ages 3-12.

SPACE REQUIREMENTS:
The minimum performance space required for an indoor show is 9-ft x 12-ft plus space for the kids to sit. Ceilings must be at least 9ft high. Preferred space: Gym/large open space-best for interactivity!
Other good spaces: Auditorium, classroom, theatre. We completely cover the performance space with mats.
outdoor shows (small)
For his outdoor performances with groups of 30 or less, Bubbledad (performer/educator Chris Catanese) creates a magical bubble-scape with bubbles of all shapes and sizes. Chris's character Bubbledad is all about DIY. He loves to interact with the kids and encourages them to experiment with bubbles on their own. Through bubbly magic tricks, Bubbledad covers the science of how bubbles are formed as well as basic geometry concepts (2D vs 3D shapes, circles/spheres.)
Then bubbles start growing from big > huge > ginormous! Chris finishes with thousands of giant bubbles for the kids to run around and pop. With younger kids there's a little less "show" and a little more running around popping bubbles!

Maximum # of kids: 30. For larger groups, we offer discounted additional shows (45-minutes or 30-minutes) with 5/10 minutes between shows (max 6 shows per day). Large groups can also choose an indoor show or a large outdoor show, but neither option includes kids running around popping bubbles.
outdoor shows (large)
For groups larger than 30 who don't have an indoor space, Chris Can do his indoor show outside (see indoor show description). While indoor shows are less susceptible to weather issues, large outdoor shows are a great option if your organization is looking to do a family event in a large grassy outdoor space.
make your own bubble wand workshops
Make-Your-Own-Bubble-Wand Workshop with Bubbledad!
During Chris's live shows he refers to himself as a "bubble builder" in part because he builds/makes the vast majority of his bubble tools! He always encourages the kids to take a DIY attitude towards bubble making.
In the workshops, kids learn how to make some of Bubbledad's most beloved bubble toys: a bubble trumpet, the "Bubble-inator" (makes a hundred bubbles at once!), a bubble foamer, a tri-string wand, and simple wands in a variety of shapes (heart, star etc.) The kids get to test out and keep their creations :-)
