Who is Casey Carle?
Not Your Average Maniac...
Many bubblers get into this biz not because they are entertainers but because they want to share their discoverie about soap bubbles. Casey Carle is first and foremost a consummate entertainer, who decided to add bubbling to an already successful career as a showman, actor and physical comedian. He has worked virtually full-time on and off stage his entire adult life.
One in a family of 11, Casey Carle grew up in the rural farm lands of Greene, NY, on a single lane, dead-end, dirt road...so he clearly needed to stand out in some way! Fortunately he chose a positive route... graduating cum laude from S.U.N.Y. Geneseo with a "Bachelor of Arts" in Drama and also from The Ringling Bros. Clown College with "Bachelor of Fun Arts" (for real!).
He turned his training into a career in the performing arts that has continued non-stop for multiple decades.
Get to know Casey from his own lips in this interview from Wisconsin Public Radio, April 2012....
