Hmmm..How can we mae some extra money at the Melbourne Fringe Festival? I know! Let's collect some circus performers from various shows and put them all together into a variety show at 11pm on Thursday night!
And there you have it folks, A Smorgasboard of Circus.
The amazing juggling Bruno was by far the most entertaining as he pottered around with a shonky European accent. He is performing in another bite sized tidbit called 'Tastes Funny'.
Really Long Link
No doubt the Town Hall in Northcote is a lovely venue and seats were ultra comfortable. (perhaps a little too comfortable for so late at night.) And there were some quality acts such as sword swallowing and a 'ninja chef' tightrope walking on a not so tight rope (pictured below).
But the format of the show was rather shoddy as each act was tacked onto another by a last minute mc whose jokes fell flat every time. The short acts themselves were bulked up with a lot of unecessary talking and waffle. I thought $15 was a bit steep for this short, seemingly ad hoc performance.
