What the Fluff? A Tribute to Union Square Invention 2007
It's the 90th anniversary of Marshmallow Fluff. 1917 was the year when
Archibald Query used his genius to mastermind Fluff right here in
Somerville's Union Square. We're celebrating the creation of this great
American foodstuff with a madcap tribute on September 29. Join artists,
musical and theatrical performers, inventors, and humorists to pay yummy
homage.
"What the Fluff?" is presented by Union Square Main Streets as part of
ArtsUnion, an initiative shepherded by the Somerville Arts Council and
funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
Performances by:
The "nostalgically sublime" Adriel Azure and his Dream Indigo Orchestra
with swing and jazz from 1900 to 1940, the tunes Archibald once hopped to.
Somerville's own B for Brontosaurus plays rollicking songs for all ages and
leads a Fluffernutter sing along.
Thunderpants Johnson's Hillbilly Orchestra, with the best kazoo
instrumentalists, will have everyone toe tapping.
The Flufferettes: Durkee-Mower, producer of Fluff, made their product
popular through a radio show in the 1930s featuring ³The Flufferettes.² The
cuties of Thru the Keyhole return as the Flufferettes for the visual age.
They'll entertain between band sets in the style of 30s pin-up girls and 60s
go-go dancers.
Saturday, September 29
4:00 to 7:00 pm
(Raindate Sunday, September 30)
Union Square Plaza, Somerville, MA
