Whilst on my London Eye experience I noticed this strange purple cow which I thought was a temporary children’s play area. When I got home and researched udderbelly.co.uk I realised that it was a temporary theatre! :
Underbelly is a UK based live entertainment company. We run Underbelly at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe – one of the largest venue operations at the largest arts festival in the world – and Udderbelly Festival and London Wonderground at Southbank Centre in London. Our iconic upside-down purple cow venue – Udderbelly – is an annual fixture on both the London and Edinburgh skylines and 2012 was the inaugural year for our new London festival of circus and cabaret, London Wonderground.
Quite original and colourful!
Very original and unexpected in that location…
Excellent title.
I couldn’t resist
What a quirky theatre! Reminds me of my grandmother’s many knickknacks, one of which was a small ceramic purple cow. Around its neck, instead of a cowbell was a card with the poem: I’ve never seen a purple cow, I never hope to see one. But I can tell you this right now; I’d rather see than be one. Funny the things we remember, fifty years later!
Ha Ha! I love that poem, it made laugh.
It is funny the things that stick in our memory from childhood
