If your idea of fun includes psychedelic puppets, doughnuts or ice skating, this weekend was made for you.
Start your break in style tonight with an art walk in the Castro, a Dia de Los Muertos procession or an interactive sci-fi theater show, both in the Mission.
Fans of theater and spectacle will appreciate tomorrow'sTop Gun live reenactment at DNA Lounge, a series of short murder mysteries by the Un-scripted Theater company in Union Square, and the opening night of Hallowolfbat, an art installation and music show with mythical creatures, trippy landscapes and puppets interacting with the crowd.
