Nothing is true, everything is allowed. Half lies, half stories. Nothing to say and three million ways to say it. A show, if you are lucky. A slow-motion car crash, if you’re lucky. You are lucky. Roll up, Roll up! Come one, come all! A family show containing extreme violence, graphic nudity and gratuitous drug use, perhaps. Unnecessarily bringing together two worlds that have lived happily side by side for centuries; Circus and Sideshow. Inspired, in equal measure, by bad science fiction, in particular The Illuminatus Trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson, and by current affairs this show glorifies paradoxes and contradictions. Making fiction the truth and truth the fiction.
Leaving aside the “esoteric” and the “artistic”. This show is a person on stage with many costumes and objects. He will talk, insert objects into body orifices and maybe even juggle. That’s about right. An honest description of the “show”.
Honesty is the best policy.
Terrible for President
Terrible for President, a “circus” company that serves no purpose. And who is proud of that.
