Fairground Cinema - The Bioscope Show
The Bioscope, or Cinematograph, is the name for the
first incarnation of cinema on the fairground. The popularity of this
attraction meant that Bioscope shows flourished around the turn of the
Century, after which the cinema as a separate entity began to establish
itself in towns and villages. The fairground has an intertwined link with
cinema and moving image, and the recent NFA project around the Mitchell
& Kenyon project is another extension of this.
