Step inside ... inside the gaudy, surreal, theatrical world of the legendary artist Michael Matou and Sideshow Theatre Company

From London to Canada, Edinburgh to Sydney, this personal chronicle by Martin Raphael, highlights one of Australia’s most compelling theatre identities, whose extraordinary talents blew apart conventional theatre and its limited expectations

Featuring backstage stories of this influential and independent theatre group created by Matou and his musician partner, Raphael, it draws you into extraordinary theatre experiences such as their smoky Cafe Debris and Sydney's Stranded nightclub extravaganzas. It describes from the inside the tightrope of emotions that come when two huge forces combine 

This absorbing record draws on material that graphically conveys Sideshow’s place in the history of Australian theatre

“Matou possessed natural qualities others strive for, his imagination took his thoughts beyond the day to day, he was comfortable with the surreal, the lateral, the larger than life”
