SUMMARY:B—The Underwater Bubble Show
DESCRIPTION:Take a dive into a visual\, musical\, and spectacular show that transports you into an imaginary underwater world. Using cutting-edge laser technology\, soap bubble tornadoes\, optical illusions\, and more\, B—The Underwater Bubble Show is an interactive performance that appeals to children and adults alike.  \nThe show follows Mr. B\, a creature of modern habits who “always feels pressed by a thousand things to do in a world that seems to be moving too fast.” The office worker discovers a little aquarium that appears like magic inside his briefcase and becomes enchanted by the wondrous underwater world of Bubblelandia\, which is full of seahorses\, dragon fish\, starfish\, mermaids\, and other creatures.  \nInspired by childhood standards like “Alice in Wonderland\,” “The Little Mermaid\,” and “Peter Pan\,” B—The Underwater Bubble Show is a modern fairy tale with one major twist. “Each classic tale represents a journey of a kid who grows up and learns something\,” explains co-creator and director Enrico Pezzoli. “We wanted a story about an adult character who discovers that he can still go back and enjoy life. Sometimes we need to step backwards for a bit and re-start.”  \nTaking cues from Cirque du Soleil\, The Underwater Bubble Show blends drama\, mime\, dance\, puppetry\, juggling\, and more with imaginative costumes and creative visual effects for a truly immersive experience.
