Full Job Description

Chicago Bubble Show is looking for energetic, outgoing performers to join our growing team!

Do you love working with children? Are you confident speaking in front of groups? Do you naturally bring energy, excitement, and fun wherever you go? If so, this could be a perfect fit for you.

This is not a desk job. This is a highly interactive, performance-based role where you will entertain children, lead activities, create unforgettable experiences, and become the highlight of someone’s special day.

No Bubble Show experience is required. We provide training and teach all show routines, equipment setup, and performance techniques.

Pay & Opportunities

$90 per 45-minute Bubble Show
Travel reimbursement for events located more than 20 miles from your home
Additional paid opportunities may be available for Science Shows, Character Performances, Princess Parties, Games, Workshops, and Special Events
Flexible part-time schedule

What You’ll Do

Perform interactive Bubble Shows for children and families
Engage audiences through enthusiasm, humor, storytelling, and audience participation
Create a fun, welcoming, and memorable experience for every child
Set up, transport, and properly maintain performance equipment
Communicate professionally with parents, schools, camps, libraries, and event organizers
Adapt performances to different venues, group sizes, and event types
Maintain a safe environment during performances and activities

Requirements

Reliable vehicle and valid driver’s license
Willingness to travel throughout Chicago and surrounding suburbs
Ability to lift, carry, load, and unload equipment
Strong speaking voice and confident public speaking skills
High energy, positive attitude, and outgoing personality
Comfortable performing in front of groups of children and adults
Dependable, punctual, and professional
Weekend availability is required
Ability to work independently and solve minor issues on-site

Ideal Candidate

You may be a great fit if you have experience in:

Theater or acting
Dance or performance arts
Teaching or childcare
Summer camps
Birthday parties and children’s events
Public speaking or hosting events

Most importantly, we’re looking for people with personality, enthusiasm, and a genuine love for making children smile.

This Job Is For You If

You enjoy being the center of attention
You are naturally charismatic and engaging
You love making children laugh and have fun
You are physically active and comfortable moving, dancing, playing, and interacting throughout a performance
You stay positive under pressure and can adapt quickly to unexpected situations
You enjoy meeting new people and working in different locations

This Job Is NOT For You If

You dislike public speaking
You prefer quiet, low-energy work
You are uncomfortable working with children
You do not enjoy driving or traveling to events
You are unable to lift and transport equipment
You struggle to maintain enthusiasm and energy throughout a performance

Please send a brief introduction about yourself and a short 20–30 second video so we can get a sense of your personality, communication style, and stage presence.

We’re looking for performers who can walk into a room and instantly make it more fun. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

Pay: $80.00 - $90.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule

Work Location: On the road
