Larry Moss

"...Rousing cheers and near-deafening laughter from the audience of 155 children!"
-Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

Vincent van Gogh used paint. Auguste Rodin worked in bronze. Larry Moss shapes air with the use of balloons. Moss's unusual art has been displayed in 12 countries on four continents. His achievements have been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records and Ripley's Believe It or Not!

Larry's show, "Magic, Danger, Suspense and Silliness" is a fun for all ages show that leaves audiences amused and amazed. Juggling, straight jackets (as well as other jackets), and some of the biggest balloons ever to appear on stage can all be seen. This is presented as either a one-man show or as a two-man show with John Barthelmes, bringing live music and some unusual twists into the mix. This show is the result of ignoring the warnings and "trying this at home."


Optional School Program:

How to Catch a Mouse: Larry Moss, World Record balloon artist, has created a stage show combining math, science, and art. In his show, How to Catch a Mouse, balloons are used to construct a Rube Goldberg-style mousetrap intended to solve the problem of a mouse on the loose. Many student volunteers are used to aid in the construction of this working machine. Student knowledge of how machines work and their eagerness to set their trap in motion make this an enjoyable show for everyone involved! Students will learn problem solving and concepts like the lever, pulley, and wheel through teamwork to reach a common goal. Using balloons as a medium for Math and Science opens the minds of students to show how Art and Science can be integrated.

Airigami: In this fun and interactive workshop, Larry teaches the art of balloon twisting that has brought him all over the world. Balloons are provided for all participants. During the course of the workshop, everyone in attendance will make at least a few simple one-balloon animals and will become familiar with a number of the basic twists used for creating more elaborate figures. Samples of various types of balloons are available to experiment with.
