    He holds a Bachelor of Fun Arts (no kidding) from Ringling Brothers Clown College, and he describes himself as a physical comedian, scientist and, most important, a bubble entertainer for anybody between the ages of 5 and 95. Next week, Casey Carle will do a three-day gig at the New York Hall of Science in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. More information and another effervescent photo are on the jump page.

    Carle’s shows are entertaining, but they also teach what he calls “bubble-ology,” which includes subjects such as molecular bonding, surface tension, and the chemical effects of evaporation, dryness, and expansion. From April 7th to April 9th, his two-a-day, 30-minute gigs will feature intricate bubble art (spaceships, fog-filled spheres, cubes) along with comedy routines and swing music.

    Details: BubbleMania, New York Hall of Science, 47-01 111th Street, Corona, April 7th, April 8th, and April 9th, 1 pm and 2 pm, $6, plus admission.
