Known for their modern circus incorporating mechanical marvels, Cirque Mechanics introduces Pedal Punk, set in a Steampunk-inspired world where cycling provides wondrous escape from obsession with technology. A 22-foot, pedal-powered performance platform serves as the caravanning mobile centerpiece of this high-flying thrill ride, featuring spectacular storytelling and daredevil acrobatics. The awe-inspiring ensemble of aerialists, jugglers, and clowns interacts with the elaborate contraption as well as penny farthings, unicycles, and tandem cycles. 

Performance times are at 2pm and 8pm. The 2pm performance is audio-described.

Run time is approximately 85 minutes, plus an intermission.
