Leapin’ Louie: The Upside Down Ocean
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. ā€œAbsolutely brilliant show and among the best science communication I’ve ever seen!ā€œ Dr. Kaitlyn Tonra, kelp scientist ā€œWhile acting the buffoon for much of his act his talent and sense of humor was always extremely sophisticated.ā€ 
–David Cohen, Executive Director, Salem Art Fair ā€œLichtenstein, a multitalented performer, has to be seen to be believed.ā€ā€Øā€“Portland Oregonian
