The Blue Bunny nightclub opened in the hastily rebuilt Palm Garden Grill/Captain Jack’s/Chateau space after the devastating 1963 fire.
We know Fats Domino, The Shirelles and Judy Garland performed there (Judy was just visiting, but put on a show anyway!).
Who do you remember seeing on stage at Paragon?
Rex Trailer, the Three Stooges, The Flying Zucchinis and many more.
We saw the Three stooges there in the mid sixties the day after a bad storm . There was sand , rocks and seaweed all over the Street and in the park. If You or anyone has information on this or other stooges shows Please let Me know. Thanks , Bob rfrodman57@outlook.com
My girlfriend and I saw Fats Domino at the Blue Bunny. I have been searching to see if anyone has a Blue Bunny newspaper ad featuring “Fats.” If I can remember correctly, wasn’t the Bunny just about under the Wild Mouse?”
Hank,the blue bunny NIGHT CLUB was in the reaR OF THE PARK NEXT TO THE ‘JIG SAW THRILLER’ RIDE (THE TUNNEL OF LOVE ON WHEELS,AS IT WAS KNOWN.) I WORKED ON THE AUTO SCOOTERS IN 1963 AND WAS DEVASTATED WHEN I WATCHED THE TV NEWS THAT NIGHT AT HOME IN EVERETT (APRIL 1963,i BELIEVE AND WATCHED AS THE FIRE OF 1963 BURNED AS IT RUINED PARTS OF THE GIANT COASTER AND THE CHATEAU BALLROOM FOREVER. —–DANNY SORDELLO.
