AboutCircus Contraption was a Seattle-based one-ring circus that drew inspiration from vaudeville and dark cabaret. The ensemble eventually turned out with a total of 19 regular members, but started out with only two when it was formed in 1998 by Lara Paxton (aka "Darty Kangoo") & David Crellin (aka "Armitage Shanks") when the pair set out to explore the wrinkles and folds of circus, performance art, mask work, dance, visual art, psychedelia, and surrealism. The troupe's first full-length work was entitled "Circus Contraption: A Surreal Circus" (1999), a show featuring live original music to accompany a wide range of acts and oddities by performers in surreal costumes. It wasn't until the early 21st century that the troupe supplied their cult following with a debut music album; "Our Latest Catalogue" (2001).
