PORTLAND — Five-time Tony Award-winning producer Jon B. Platt will bring the “Gazillion Bubble Show,” created by and starring world-renowned bubble artist Fan Yang, to Merrill Auditorium on Oct. 6.

Yang will transform bouncing bubbles, floating bubbles, misty, tiny and massive bubbles into an interactive, multimillion dollar spectacular.

His bubble masterpieces, illuminated by laser magic, make for a theatrical experience for all ages.

Over the past two decades, the bubble artist has sold out performances and earned critical acclaim in Germany, France, Spain, Vietnam, Singapore and many other countries around the globe.

Yang has set 17 Guinness World Records, most recently for putting 108 people inside a single bubble.

His performances have been broadcast on such television shows as “Oprah,” “Ellen,” “Late Night with David Letterman,” “The View,” and “Regis & Kelly.”
