The whimsical Barnaby’s World of Wonderment turned up the color with
handmade props and costumes at San Francisco’s annual Castro Street
Fair in October. A trip through Wonderland with these playful circus and street
performers left us as giddy as the Mad Hatter.

OFF WITH THEIR HEADS! (Clockwise from top left) The Queen of Hearts (Lucy Borden) plays croquet with the help of her soldier Cards. The Caterpillar (Frieda Laye) relaxes with the March Hare (Juanita Fajita) and the diminutive King of Hearts (Dam Dyke) in the mushroom garden. Tent host Max Barnaby entices fair-goers to peek inside the tent. The Queen of Hearts menaces blossoms Dizzy Blank and Emily Ulrich in the Garden of Talking Flowers. Fabric flowers, handmade by Anna Conda and the World of Wonderment crew for the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.
