Louis Pearl is one of the world’s leading bubble-ologists.  He began in 1980 by making, demonstrating, and selling a toy called the Bubble Trumpet on a street corner in Berkeley, California. Eventually his toy company had 147 products with international manufacturing and distribution.
When Louis found that he preferred playing with the toys over selling them, he sold Tangent Toys in 2002.   His Edinburgh Fringe shows have sold out for 14 years straight, which has led to multiple sold out UK and worldwide tours.  Louis lives in Portland Oregon, USA and considers the UK to be his second home... he can usually be found there during school breaks and summer holidays.
