Washington County Fair, Hillsboro, Oregon: The Parrot Pirate Show


The year is in the Summer of 2016.



  What makes me pause and want to watch a show?  I ask myself.  It is the display?  That seems to not quite fit into what I see at past fairs I have been too.  This year, on the grounds is a  boat out of water and a stage set up.  Now the stage is more what I know.  It means there is going to be a show. I need to check this out.  I walk towards the ship and it looks, to me, like an animal show with a...department store mannequin hanging on for dear life.

 
 
Ok, I am hooked, I wore something similar in the 1980's.




  The quality I look for in a show, to showcase is audience participation. Kids and adults hands on learning, show, tell and being able to connect.  I had a parrot sit on my arm holding on by its toes.
