maBoum's unofficial events guide to Monaco.
There are poissons d'avril and April fools among the entertainers this week. Damien Hirst's Cornucopia exhibition can be found among the fishes at the centenary celebrations for the Oceanographic Museum. Then looking ahead to next Tuesday, there'll be some fooling around at the Riviera Comedy Club.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Act II of the Russian Ballet centenary starts today and should please dance and classical fans. Blues music features at Moods, and DJ Kris Corleone from the Voile Rouge in Saint Tropez will get you into the mood for hot summer nights. Don't worry if you hear a thumping sound, it's not the giant Easter bunny bouncing down the street, it's just another percussive performance for the Printemps des Arts festival. And if all that's a bit too much for your heart, why not attend the Diner du Coeur and help raise money for defibrillators.
