Penn & Teller

Keller Auditorium222 SW Clay St
From humble beginnings 50 years ago busking on the streets of Philadelphia, to acclaimed sold–out runs on Broadway and renown as the longest-running and one of the most-beloved resident headline acts in Las Vegas history, magic’s legendary duo — Penn Jillette and Teller — continue to defy labels (and at times physics and good taste), by redefining the genre of magic and inventing their own very distinct niche in comedy. Their Off-Broadway debut in 1985 electrified New York with a stage show...

Leapin’ Louie: The Upside Down Ocean

Alberta Rose Theatre3000 NE Alberta St

Leapin’ Louie’s new show: An ocean animal circus spectacular
It’s science, but you laugh so hard!

Gastropod Cousteau (aka Leapin’ Louie Lichtenstein) is a nudibranch detective trying to figure out what happened to the missing kelp forests. Whales, sea otters, decorator crabs, giant squid and a peacock mantis shrimp help Gastro solve the mystery. And the story is told with circus and comedy! Featuring giant lasso, glow juggling, a 6 foot unicycle, enormous puppets and a slide-show of amazing ocean animals.

You know him from White Album Xmas or the Rose Festival, Leapin’ Louie has performed his solo shows in 35 nations around the world including Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Brazil, UK and a few dozen European tours. He has toured opening for country stars Brooks and Dunn and the rock legend Primus. He makes adults laugh with family-friendly material and he gets audiences very excited.

“Absolutely brilliant show and among the best science communication I’ve ever seen!“ Dr. Kaitlyn Tonra, kelp scientist

“While acting the buffoon for much of his act his talent and sense of humor was always extremely sophisticated.” –David Cohen, Executive Director, Salem Art Fair

“Lichtenstein, a multitalented performer, has to be seen to be believed.” –Portland Oregonian
