Andy Webster and I, Mitch Mitchelson, founded Original Mixture in the 80's,
to create a performance style that integrated clowning, circus, puppetry,
and commedia in street arts and young people's theatre. Juggler, Doug Orton,
joined us later. The company was a great succes, touring througout Great Britain
and to Pittsburgh (USA). After Doug left the company became a duo again with 'the
smallest circus in the world ..... honest', traveling to Houston/ Texas, Brisbane/
Australia, Hong Kong, Osaka and Tokyo/ Japan. After that, we were working as
medieval troubadours with Fools Paradise and the New London Consort, we went to
Florence and Athens. Coming back from Athens, Original Mixture developed street
animation work which gave birth to 'The Newspaper Men' and
the site specific companion pieces, 'The Manuscript Men', 'Cirque journal', 'Sanity
Clauses' and 'Angels'.This work has become the speciality of the company touring to
Paris, Halifax, Canada, Spain and Dublin. For more info on where you can see us, click on
