Northern California Celebrates Cinco De Mayo

There were parties galore for Cinco De Mayo, a celebration of Mexican culture and the victory over the French in the mid 1800's. A Mariachi received rave reviews at a resident appreciation; a guitarist added authentic Latin music at a corporate event.

 

They were more than a song and dance team

Time travel back to the 1930's and New York Vaudeville. This two person team had it all: zany music, silly antics, acrobatics, and she twirled 40-hula hoops. What was the finale? A drum roll please for Finley the trained puppy dog.

When Irish Eyes are Smiling

It was everything Green for Saint Patrick's Day at a San Francisco Bay Area shopping center-a long green gown for the fiddler; a green derby hat, green bowtie, and green pants for the balloon artist. That's no malarkey.

 

Is it a "He" or a "She?"

Mrs. Doubtfire was an award winning movie partially filmed at the famed Bridges Restaurant in Danville, CA. An impersonator who did not sprinkle a hand full of cayenne pepper on their entrees was the surprise guest for a 30-person corporate event. According to the event planner, "He crushed it, he was amazing, he had everyone in stitches." Enjoy the 1993 comedy movie free on YouTube.

Read with both Eyes open

"Cat in the Hat" wearing his trademark peppermint hat and bright red bowtie was the narrator for a "Kids like Reading" event at a San Francisco Bay shopping center. Yes, children, expand your imagination by reading with both eyes open, not shut

.

Yes, he can "wiggle." A Chinese Acrobat wiggled into a small cylinder and balanced a candle on a long stick.  A dragon and Chinese Lion Dancers were the second act for "The Year of the Tiger" at a San Francisco shopping Center.

Good Bye Party

A loyal and dedicated employee for a construction company retired after 20-years. His fellow workers knew that his funk and disco idol was Rick James. What a surprise!!!  Our impersonator included "Mary Jane" and the all time favorite "Super Freak." Gerald later mixed it up by dancing with the crowd.
