Mr Alexander's Travelling Show

On the Kinecroft

  Mr Alexander has been perfecting his open-air one man show for over forty years. His show can be seen at many of Britain's greatest events as well as at many fine English country houses and sites, thanks to a special collaboration with English Heritage.
A unique and captivating blend of magic, juggling, unicycling, balance and illusion, the show is reminiscent of the Variety Shows of years ago. Closely choreographed and timed to ragtime and modern jazz, the show appeals to young and old alike. From the spectacular and gravity-defying three chair balance to his fascinating Linking Ring routine (which has been praised as the finest in Britain), the show guarantees to amuse, entertain and delight all who watch. He will present three or four set shows during a day, and also improvise new routines between shows. This year's improvisation becomes next year's show!
Set against the colourful and unique Victorian Theatre set, based on Pollocks twopenny coloured toy theatre, the open-air show has a feel of travelling shows of the twenties and thirties and the stage gives even the largest audiences a great view.

Mr Alexander will be performing throughout his stay at BunkFest - watch the blackboard for times

Starkey and the Moon Doctor

Saturday Street Fair and maybe elsewhere...

  Starkey and the Moon Doctor met in Yarm at a P.G. Wodehouse convention. They immediately discovered that they had much in common including also a love of The Mighty Boosh, fresh air and Extra Special Cosmic Dancing. Noticing that there was a gap in the market for Extra Special Cosmic Dancing they immediately decided to unite and form a duo bringing this exotic form to the masses. So far they have travelled to such far flung corners of the globe as Reading, Oxford and even once ventured into the wild, untamed hinterlands of Bristol.

Starkey and the Moon Doctor look forward to making their acquaintance with the good folk of Bunkfest and if asked nicely they will even let you buy them a drink; and if drunk enough will explain the hidden esoteric meanings behind their strange exotic movements and behaviour.

Above all they hope you enjoy the show!
