Clowncatraz

From the creators of The Ratcatcher's Ball and Wonky Tonk Toytown, Bleakshow resents... Clowncatraz! - a night of cabaret, sideshow, immersive theatre, elaborate set design and FIRE on 29th October at the Loco Klub.

Laughter is disappearing from the streets as the clowns are being locked away.
Are you prepared to serve time with the most hardened and disturbed of clowns in the infamously depraved Clowncatraz clink?

Will you aid in the greatest prison break the circus has ever known? or will you suffer, like thousands before you - looking down the barrel of a banana, or crushed under the weight of the establishment's hyperbolically large boot?

Roll up and be amazed by triggering themes of violence, death, torture, AND MORE!

Cabaret:

Doug Francisco
DOGHOUSE
Ed Rapley
Magic Malka
Cormac Circus
Jiggles the Clown
Rotten Peach
... and more!

Bands / DJs:

The Ducks Will Fxck You:
Two of the most unpleasant clowns in the slammer playing music at you. Absurdist, abject and to be avoided where possible, with deep throat noise from dropped soap in the shower.

DOGHOUSE:
Former frontman of the infamous techno punk band Sicknote, DOGHOUSE is now doomed to an eternity in Clowncatraz, spending his remaining years leading a prevalent clown gang within the penitentiary.

Trans-Siberian Express:
Six clowns in a chain gang with harmonicas, spoons and a washboard. These psychedelic rock / post-punk crooners have tickled the ivories for long enough to know any broken heart from every sunken dream.

DJ CDQ:
Bristol-based remix wizard and eclectic DJ. Best known for flipping familiar sounds into unexpected dancefloor weapons, his sets jump between garage, electronic, trance, disco, jungle and dancehall, packed with unreleased edits, remixes and leftfield reworks.

For his Clowncatraz set, expect the weirder end of the spectrum: warped and ridiculous electronic edits and completely unhinged remixes built for a night of cabaret, sideshow chaos and immersive theatre.

The Fire Rats return with more ropey inventions: massive fuck-off ball and chain poi!
