Check out this year’s SF Mime Troupe show “Ripple Effect” in Glen Canyon park this Saturday, Aug. 16. The free show (donations encouraged) starts at 2 p.m., with live music starting earlier at 1:30 p.m.
Here’s the blurb about the show from their webpage:

What is The City coming to? Veteran of the Revolution Deborah Johnson thinks she knows. So does immigrant-turned-super patriot Sunny Nguyen. And so does Silicon Valley’s newest star, small-town transplant Jeanine Adenauer. And each has reason to despise the other. So how do they end up together in a tour boat in the middle of San Francisco Bay? Each one has a story to tell; a broken dream that brought them to this moment, and a past that divides them from the others. But can the old commie, the tech newbie, and the flag-waving beautician find common ground ashore, or will they all sink under the waves? Who – or what – is S.U.S.I.? And can anyone stop… The Octopus |
