Title Moscow Circus UK
Abstract/Description Whole show? This was a re-migrate. There are severe tracking problems at the opening but then it improves. Edited highlights of show with English commentary. Perch act – three down, three up – balancing pole on heads and managing to smile! Starts well – some tracking problems. Aerials, Russian bar (2M,1F), clowns, perch pole with massive bearded man, High wire team Druzhinas (parents of Sergei) Poor quality footage unfortunately- but this is also 1988? Interview with Annaev of cossacks. Popovi (?) trampoline. The Flying Garamovs? (there is a commentary so I am transcribing the names phonetically), two young jugglers whose names I’m not going to attempt. Shatin troupe of acrobats, clown Marchevski? Annaev Cossack riding – he is the striking grey haired man who appears in the endless Cossack rushes. This has been directed by Anatoly Marchevsky – so unclear that this is not to do with Edgley – his name appears nowhere in the credits.
