Ray Bubbles, a multiple Guinness World Record holder, is renowned as one of the leading soap bubble artists globally. His work spans science centres, theatres and special needs schools across the UK and Ireland.

This upcoming family show will combine bubbles, puppets, shadow bubbles and shadow puppets and will explore children’s emotions and feelings, featuring stunning bubble tricks and routines.
