A new nine-strong international company composed of experienced/hardened/grizzled artists and riggers and artist-riggers, Pirates of the Carabina were originally commissioned to create Flown by Glastonbury Festival for its Circus Big Top. Now the piece is on a small national tour, and it's worth catching if you can. Sideshow has seen a tiny piece of it in an outdoor presentation and it was great – funny and earthy and mechanically ingenious.
