"The Last Show on Earth" Extract from a BBC documentary about Archaos. Watch the poetry of the trapeze off a forklift truck. Archaos were visceral, grungy, primeval and anarchic, it was entertainment that took the audience to the edge. Mad Max in the Thunderdrome was never as exciting,and there was no theatrical equal. Bidon remarked at the time New Circus is more traditional than other circus. Ordinary circus has become incorporated. Its dull. People are in it for the money and the spirit suffers. What we have tried to do is recapture the spirit and the passion of performing.
