SF Mime Troupe - WRECKAGE - A Musical Tragicomedy @ Berkeley

Come and watch The San Francisco Mime Troup Perform a Musical Tragic Comedy as they take a look at all that remains now and after this national nightmare is over. How can people survive this mess? And how much more are we willing to sacrifice to salvage our lives and country? Can we restore the three branches of government to a system of honest, non-politicized checks and balances that actually serve “We the People”? We're looking forward to seeing you in the Park! This Performance will be playing multiple times and here's the schedule if you want to watch it another day: Saturday, August 22nd at 2:00 PM at Willard Park, Berkeley Sunday, August 23rd at 2:00 PM at Willard Park, Berkeley Saturday, August 29th at 2:00 PM @ Cedar Rose Park, Berkeley Sunday, August 30th at 2:00 pm @ Cedar Rose Park Event Website Link: https://www.sfmt.org/event-details/live-oak-park-berkeley-2026 Important Information: Try to arrived 30 minutes to and hour early, since this performance is pretty popular, amazing, and wonderful that it gets pretty crowded and packed that it's gets difficult to find me and others at this performance. Plan according & ahead of time, since parking will be hard to find near the event and since the performance will be outdoors, it will get hot. I recommend that you bring portable camping chair or beach blanket / towels lay down on the grass and also to cover yourself from the sun, along with a hat, sunglasses and a fan to cover yourself and keep you cool.
