David Lichtenstein has performed Leapin’ Louie comedy shows at more than 200 company parties, corporate events and private parties in all kinds of situations.

Leapin' Louie can get any business crowd laughing and cheering for 40 minutes.
Shows can be 3 to 60 minutes in length, typically 40-45 minutes when Leapin' Louie is the featuried entertainment.

Leapin' Louie tailors the show to deliver and reinforce the clients' message or themes.
Louie writes custom jokes using the clients keywords and personnel. He re-writes his large repetoire of comedy-tricks material into customized thematic routines for the client.. He uses general themes that he has performed many times, such as change or growth, twisting and tweaking them to fit the client's event.

Comedy--Tricks
The Leapin’ Louie show features high-energy spoken comedy, audience participation, physical comedy, and lots of tricks: lasso twirling, whip cracking (when appropriate), juggling, high unicycle and other bits.

Company Employee Parties:
Louie can perform physical comedy and trick dominated shows with less talking (in Spanish or English) for companies with mixed language background employees

Details

David selects a Leapin’ Louie customizes the show from a large pool of material. He can bring a small sound system with him, or plug his wireless mic and music player into a sound system on site.

Western or Urban?

For evening adult shows Louie is usually to be found in sharp colorful suit and a tie. However, because in the modern world comedians and jugglers are both a dime-a-dozen, he is often now being asked for the all-western show in cowboy regalia. After all, he is the most explosive Lithuanian Jewish Cowboy Comedian to ever come out of Oregon.

Leapin’ Louie has done feature shows for many companies and events including:
IBM
PDX Airport
Solaflex
Congrex
Shell
Alaska Airlines
Pacific Power and Light
Oregon CEO Roundtable
--and many more

Your performances were outstanding! I’ve personally seen your act several times, and you never fail to extract chuckles from your audience. Your acts were professional and a very positive contribution to our event. ... I also appreciate your adaptability to an unusual venue, such as PDX.
With best regards,

--Dear Mr Lichtenstein,

Thank you again for your marvelous contribution to the success of the Chief Executive Roundtable Retreat last July at Salishan. Everyone who saw your act was joyfully entertained. We especially thank you for performing for and with the children prior to the adult program.
Your program for the adults was very well done. The comment and references to OGI and the retreat definitely personalized the program, and including some of the audience as participants in your act was fun for everyone.

Now — about your act … It’s GREAT!
Thank you again, David. We were very pleasantly entertained.

Sincerely,
-- Karna Berry, Events Coordinator, Chief Executive Roundtable



“Although his ability and talent are impressive, Lichtenstein's real gift is his warmth and humor -- attributes he use to create an intimate alliance with the audience.”
