Description
A small boy is enthralled by a street performer who is a "living statue" in Covent Garden, London, UK. Ah, the wonder and innocence of childhood! "The term living statue refers to a street artist who poses like a statue or mannequin, usually with realistic statue-like makeup, sometimes for hours at a time.
Living statue performers can fool passersby and a number of hidden camera shows on television have used living statues to startle people.As with all performing arts, living statue performers may perform as buskers"
