Description:
The Moss Arts Center welcomes the Cirque Mechanics to the stage for their show "Pedal Punk" on Friday, April 24 and Saturday, April 25, 2015.
“Pedal Punk” is a steam punk experience that will charm you with its story and thrill you with its daring; a rowdy circus where the mischief is on wheels. Creator Chris Lashua’s road to the circus began with his daredevil skills as a BMX rider. In this show, Lashua applies his mechanical wizardry to all things pedalpowered. At the heart of the fun is the pedal-driven “Gantry Bike,” a modern-day industrial circus caravan that moves around the stage with a dynamic and quirky ensemble of equilibrists, funambulists, and acrobats. You’ll encounter unicycles that fly, wheel acrobats that hover, cyclists that whirl, pole climbers that soar, and trapeze artists that float.
