Side Show Alley
The Museum...a private collection which is now Australia's only travelling "freak animal" exhibit.
A tent decorated with stunningly detailed sideshow banner line & eye cathcing carnival lights complete with ticket box and spruiking platforms and run by dynamic performers (including some of Australia's smallest entertainers) dressed in vintage safari suits, boldly informing/warning the publis of what they are about to see.
The outside spectacle is a show in itself. Inspired by the old time freak shows, medical museums and fine art galleries, this tastefully presented and bizarre exhibit of genuine mistakes of nature is like no other. The Mutant Barnyard is Australia's largest collection of authentic freak animals, including Daisy & Maisy the world famous two headed calf, Dido the double bodied duckling, a Siamese twin piglet with four ears sharing a face, shrunken heads and much, much more. The animals are professionally preserved medical specimens and historic items from old Freak shows. The examples are taxidermies, in jars and skeletons.
'The Mutant Barnyard' is designed as a travelling sideshow museum with guided tours of 10 to 15 minutes to show and explain this curious collection. People will be talking about this educational and eye-popping carnival of wonders for years to come. - Indulge your curiosity and come face to face with the beautiful, the grotesque and the unimaginable.
