What an incredible immersive, fun, mind-blowing and simply sensational experience we had here on Saturday at The Ultimate Bubble Show! The children (and adults) were enthralled by what Ray could make with bubbles!

For anyone who sadly missed it, rest assured we will be having him visit us again - it was truly magical.

Thank you Ray for coming to perform here at The Tower Theatre, we look forward to having you back again with us again soon.

This is a fast paced show full of high energy and surprises as Ray uses various different gases to create incredible bubble sculptures, effects and magical displays.

Watch in amazement as Ray creates a volcano bubble, a soap bubble carousel, a bubble ghost and even a tornado inside a bubble!!!!!
