Candy-Colored Whimsy Downtown

posted by on May 1 at 9:33 AM

It’s May Day (daffodils for everyone at Pike Place Market, free gelato, three protest marches) and First Thursday; add to that this performance parade and First Avenue looks like the place to be this afternoon.

I’m hearing whispers about dancing cakes, a concrete-bound ocean liner, a full orchestra, twisted French humor, and a huge cast of performers. The spectacle starts at 5:30 pm at Occidental Park and proceeds to the Harbor Steps (across from SAM) where the main event begins at 6 pm.

Now, dancing ocean liners, a twisted French cake, and huge cast of comedians ... that might have been interesting ...

Dancing cakes, twisted french humor and homeland security terror drills at the same place, at the same time. Now that's entertainment.
