Wild Australia Show troupe

The Wild Australia Show was a troupe of Indigenous Australian performers that toured Australia during 1892 and 1893. The performers were recruited by Archibald Meston and his business partner with the aim of embarking on a world tour concluding at Chicago's World's Columbian Exposition. The performers' motivations for joining the tour are unknown; scholars have suggested that some may have been kidnapped or coerced, while others may have sought an escape from the violent Queensland frontier. Inspired by the ethnological expositions and Wild West shows popular during the era, the troupe's performances included dances, corroborees, and scenes inspired by the Australian frontier wars. The troupe ultimately performed in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, but ran out of funds and was abandoned by Meston before leaving the country. The performers were photographed during their tour by several of the country's leading photographers, with many of these photographs eventually becoming widely reproduced. (Full article...)
