Cirque Mechanics Tilt!

Cirque Mechanics takes you on a journey to the back lot of their inventive theme park, where in the shadow of the roller coaster and under the lights of the Ferris wheel, you'll meet the carnies, characters, and operators that keep the thrills coming and the rides running. Cirque Mechanics was founded in 2004 by Boston native and German Wheel artist Chris Lashua after the success of a collaborative project with the Circus Center of San Francisco entitled Birdhouse Factory. Cirque Mechanics quickly established itself as a premiere American circus with its unique approach to performance, inspiring storytelling, and innovative mechanical staging. Spectacle Magazine hailed it as “the greatest contribution to the American circus since Cirque du Soleil.” Although inspired by modern circus, Cirque Mechanics finds its roots in the mechanical and its heart in the stories of American ingenuity. The shows, rooted in realism, display a raw quality rarely found in modern circuses, making their message timeless and relevant. The stories are wrapped in circus acrobatics, mechanical wonders, and a bit of clowning around. The troupe has created five extraordinary productions: Birdhouse Factory, Boomtown, Pedal Punk, 42FT- A Menagerie of Mechanical Marvels, and, most recently, the wind-inspired Zephyr.
