Take a look at http://www.voltini.com These guys are breaking into the outside shows with this unit and have already booked a few bursters.
I take my hat off to them for putting forth their faith in Sideshow and hope if you get the chance you will cough up the price of admission. Ken. |

It looks like they have put a lot of time and a bit of coin in this thing. Have they had much success, or is it too early to tell? I wouldn't want to play that show in the rain.

Yep the show is terrific and deserves success. You are right Todd, they knew the biz and have worked it for years so rather than a text book study they have done their apprenticeship.
They have backed their best sponsor,,,themselves and yes this is the first proper year that this show will travel on the road,,,,with a very little help from their friends they have managed to break into the show run with the opening at Llandudno one of the best UK Victorian Street Fairs (Not Showmans Guild). Now a little Quiz,,,Harley you should get this ???? Who is the male featured in the show ???? A clue Seb ??? I am really rooting for these guys and I know that should they fail it will not be through them skinting on the show or lack of enthusiasm. Ken. |

Voltini's shows are great! He's a real performer and master builder of Tesla coils. He built a replica of our 1940s coil from the Professor Sparks act and performed it perfectly. Here's a video:

Nipps is just jealous, cause when he takes off HIS fez, his hair falls in his face.

Of course another clue could have been that he was born out of wedlock? Which would make him a right B*****D.
No Wedlock is not a town in Somerset ! |

Alright, now I know I'm crazy, but did I miss a Calendar/Performance Schedule? I assume they're on the wrong side of the ocean for me, but I was just curious.

Lovely, great stuff!
The two problems with all the electric acts I've seen to date are weak equipment and so-so entertainment skills. These folks have solved both of those issues. |

A bit of a let down,,,just heard that Ronnie Taylors Boxing Booth will not open at Dingles as they have been refused a boxing licence.
