Bristol Coddywomple
Download© Licensed to London News Pictures; 26/07/2020; Bristol, UK. "Hazmat" (in yellow) & "Covid" (in red) perform on the streets of St Annes in The Bristol Coddywomple with a colourful clown show created specifically for these times of the coronavirus pandemic. The comedy double act consists of the virus, Covid 19, who is naive and playful, and a bright yellow Hazmat suited character who attempts to 'control the virus'. The Bristol Coddywomple is an ambling celebration of street performance with more than 40 performance artists, entertainers and musicians taking ambling versions of their shows out into their local areas, giving them a chance to show off their talents to live audiences while venues remain shut due to the coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown when much art and performance has been unable to take place in normal venues. This is the first one of its kind in the UK, with the Coddywomplers performers of many types performing on the streets following pre-mapped and publicised routes to entertain their neighbours as they pass through with music, circus and visual treats. Audiences can watch from their windows and doorways, or come outside to interact with the entertainers from their front yards. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP.
