Don your finest wings & carapaces and join our mighty swarm as we cycle to catch Cascadia's finest puppet troupe! We'll leisurely make our way along the Esplanade to River Street Studios for an outdoor performance, details below: A Night at the Grand Opera Performance | River Street Studios — Friday, August 21 A live puppet performance by internationally acclaimed traveling puppet theater, String and Shadow from Olympia, Washington. Show begins at 7:30pm. Come enjoy an evening of outdoor theater and giant, spectacle puppetry in Portland, Oregon at River Street Studios, on the banks of the Willamette River at sunset. Brought to you by String and Shadow Puppet Theater, “Night at the Grand Opera” is a frenzied romp through a candlelit night at the Opera. Rococo extravagance is fashioned with elaborate cardboard sets that collapse and unfold to reveal the many great dramas of the opera house (not all of which happen on stage.) Love triangles, converging revolutionary plots, art-loving flies and stilt-walking vermin are brought to life with cardboard and paper-mache. Fun for the whole family. Bring your own chair or blanket! $20 - $35 suggested entry fee, no one turned away due to lack of funds.
