Sideshow theatre
Fish Town would not be complete without its dandy concoction of carnival sideshow theatre, and this year we have doubled the carnival. Expect unearthly performances from Fire and Pole Queens, Fierce Family Troupe, The Pony Girls (Our Police Force), Regina & The Queens (Drag Show) Time Travel Theatre, Wobbly Circus, Miss Mary Jane, Dirty Circus and many more of our Sideshow Sweethearts. Fish Town promises once again to be a highlight of this year’s Picnic, delivering three debauched days and nights of mind blowing, soul bending entertainment under its unwavering banner of ‘unity through diversity’.
