I would highly recommend Bubble Mania by Casey - Carle!  Casey fused together science, art, comedy, social emotional learning, safety (even sign language) with his show. It only took a few minutes, but he quickly picked up on our particular school's personality and catered his performance to that as well. He used the same or similar wording as in our curriculums which really enabled students to make the connection between their classwork and the assembly.  Casey was able to differentiate the show so that it was higher level for the third through fifth graders and more accessible to the kindergarteners through second graders.  Casey even took the time at the end of the show once all the other students had left to connect with a student who had seen him while on vacation. It was a significant moment for this student. Casey was professional, engaging, and while a very talented performer, you could tell he was an educator at heart.
