Children’s Program: Unique Derique

  • Children’s Garden, Yerba Buena Gardens 799 Howard Street KS, 67337 United States (map)

This children’s program has two shows: 11-11:30am with a repeat show 12-12:30pm.

A beloved Bay Area institution, Unique Derique is a prince among clowns, an internationally esteemed performer who has honed a singular blend of physical comedy and hambone body percussion. Derique (aka Lance McGee) started clowning in Berkeley at 15 with Circus A La Mode and later joined San Francisco’s Pickle Family Circus. He’s also a licensed drama therapist and school counselor who teaches mindfulness. Whether he’s in a park, Harlem’s storied Apollo Theatre, or collaborating with Bobby McFerrin or The Temptations, Unique Derique earns gales of laughter with his wildly imaginative skits.
