I grew up in London visiting Cabaret Mechanical Theater in Covent Garden as often as my parents would take me. I was heart broken when it closed in ~2000. Novelty Automation is mainly just Tim's work (the chiropodist dates back to CMT) but it turns out the larger organization still exists and has occasional touring exhibits... and I just found out a new permanent exhibit in Hastings! https://cabaret.co.uk/
