Cirque Mechanics, although inspired by modern circus, 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 circus, that makes their message timeless and relevant. The stories are wrapped in circus acrobatics, mechanical wonders and a bit of clowning around.

YULETIDE FACTORY

Available: November 25 - December 15, 2024
Yuletide Factory is set around the holidays in a 1930’s factory, where a Scrooge-like “Boss” loses patience as his sidekick tries to bring holiday cheer onto the floor of the drab and dreary widget factory. It is a place where spectators will watch a contortionist perform on a turntable powered by unicyclists, they will be captivated by the aerialist lifted by the acrobat inside a giant wheel, and they will be stunned when the trampoline wall artists fly and walk on air. All the while they will be giggling at the antics of the comedic characters, impressed by the acro-dancing, and enchanted by the story of yuletide cheer, friendship, and nutcrackers.
