A ‘Mighty Boosh’ photography exhibition is coming to London this autumn
A photography exhibition celebrating 20 years of The Mighty Boosh will be coming to London later this year.
Behind The Boosh 20 was first exhibited in Australia last summer and will be coming to Behind The Gallery at 2 Hoxton Street from October 10-13.
The photos were taken by cast member Dave Brown, who wasn’t an official photographer but captured images of the cast purely for fun.
“I’m in total denial that it’s been 20 years since I donned a fake mullet and sprayed on the fake tan to play Joey Moose in ‘Killeroo’, the first episode of season 1 back in 2004,” Brown said in a press release. “I had a Nokia brick phone back then, social media consisted only of Friends Reunited and MySpace, Franz Ferdinand was number 1 and Rich Fulcher had a perm.
“It’s been a while since I showed some Behind The Boosh pics to the UK fans! It’s gonna be great to get my monkey hands back into the dusty Boosh archives to find some old fan-favorite classics but I’m also keen to show some never-before-seen moments from all the TV and Live shows,” Brown said [via Behind The Gallery].
“The exhibitions I had last year in Sydney and Melbourne blew me away, it was so great to meet a new generation of fans whose older siblings and parents had handed their Boosh love down to them, I’m hoping there are a few new Boosh babies over here too but also great to see all the fans who still watch it late on a Saturday night with a Pot Noodle and a bowl of Coco Pops.”
Behind The Gallery Creative Director Stephen Dallimore added: “The love The Mighty Boosh still has to this day, is comparable to legendary acts such as Monty Python and continues to draw together all fringes of society. Like in Australia, our aim is to provide fans with a memorable experience that will take people on a journey through time and space via Daves photography and create space where fans can hang out.”
The series aired between 2004 and 2007. Brown played, among numerous other characters, Bollo the ape.
