I think the subject is pretty self explatatory, but I'm looking for sideshows or freak shows based in the UK.

Who are they and where do they perform etc? I'd really like to go and see them.

The reason is (apart from the fact I love watching this stuff) I'm doing a documentary on circus and the sideshow for my final uni project and am in need of as much info as possible.

I'm also in search of books, videos, dvds, scraps of paper... etc with anything to do with the sideshow or circus past, present or future(?).

If anyone can help out I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Ros

Ros, check out http://www.sideshowworld.com for all your needs (photos, sounds,etc.)........there are also a few other really good sites. I would like to get a copy of your finished project!

Make sure you get to SIT DOWN with our mutual friend and get the 'goods'. Find his wandering hiney nd get some photos!!!

Cheers guys,

I'll have to try pin Ken down, he's never in one place for all too long though!

If David's reading this too, and you're not somewhere exotic for a couple of days, I'd love to be able to have a chat with you too.

In fact, if there are any other sideshow performers in the UK, your help would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

Ros
