Discovery Museum – Oct 2013

Our show “The Fantastical Scrapbooks & Collection of Arthur Fenwick” was performed twice in October 2013 as Part of Juice Festival. The setting was our favourite room, magnificent Great Hall of the Discovery Museum, Newcastle. We performed to packed-out audiences. The Exhibition of posters and photographs was displayed in 3 caravans and a big top we designed. People were able to go into the stands and learn about our circus Heritage.
