The Nutty Professor and His Amazing Magic Bubble Show

 
Jamie Stuart Review by Jamie Stuart 4 Published: 19 Aug 2016 theSpace @ Surgeons Hall Show Dates: 5 Aug 2016-27 Aug 2016

Bubble-lovers will rejoice in this fun, immersive spectacle lead by the energetic assistant Ms Squeaky Bottom and the Nutty Professor himself. This show fully lives up to the jubbly expectations set by its title and will surely provide a fun experience for any kids in the 7-and-under age group.

While the entire audience is showered with bubbles at one point or another, you'd do your best to grab a front row seat for maximum involvement

Full of sound effects, call-and-response cheers, and a selection of volunteers and “helpers” from the audience, the hour-long show does well to hold the attention of the children in the room. There’s also the occasional cheeky joke which might even appeal to some adults. The costumes and set are colorful in appearance and even more colorful is the personality of the characters.

While the entire audience is showered with bubbles at one point or another, you'd do your best to grab a front row seat for maximum involvement. Those bold enough to sit near the stage can expect showerings of squiggly toys and every type of bubble imaginable- bubble blizzards, bubble volcanos, bubble ice-cream and even- for those daring few children- the chance to be encased in a bubble! Viewers can even expect a guest appearance from local celebrity monster Nessie.

This show will surely provide an enjoyable experience for young children, but it is lacking in material that might also appeal to parents. There are times when the show seems to move too slowly to keep the attention of the younger crowd, an issue that could perhaps be solved by more music or other effects. But overall this is a great show for kids and provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see some unique bubble shows put on by a quirky, likeable couple.
