Entertainment
The Space
The Space - one of Expo
'88's smallest - and lesser known performance
venues - was located in the northern Brisbane
River-side edge of the Expo site - near the
helicopter pad and the side of the Canada Pavilion
and Suncorp Sensus Play Area, where, in front of a
small circular grass turf seating area, families
could rest, have a picnic lunch,
and enjoy busker-type entertainment by
individual performers, as well as street theatre
performers and smaller scale types of
entertainment.
Also nearby here was the popular New Zealand art
work of a group of African animals grazing - a
very effectively done colourfully rendered painted
profile of several elephants and zebras, on sheets
of cut-out corrugated iron - which added some
unfamiliar - and welcome - whimsy to this somewhat
hidden part of the site.
