“Intelligently conceived and expertly executed.” – The New York Times
This dazzling family spectacle, full of adventure, comedy and excitement, dares us to leap into the circus ring and feel the thrill and timelessness of this fantastical art form. Overflowing with theatricality and inspired by modern circus, 42FT showcases a galloping mechanical horse, a rotating tent frame, strongmen, acrobats and aerialists, and feats of wonder that will have you gasping in awe. Step right up, ladies and gents, boys and girls, to see the enchanted world of gears and canvas, pulleys and sawdust, magic and fun! See the show The New York Times called, “engrossingly entertaining,” TimeOut New York described as, “a spectacular ride,” and the Omaha World-Herald catalogued as full of “wit, whimsey and wonder.”
Cirque Mechanics was founded in 2004 by Boston native and German Wheel artist, Chris Lashua. Cirque Mechanics quickly established itself as a premiere American circus, with its unique approach to performance, inspiring storytelling and innovative mechanical staging. Cirque Mechanics, although inspired by modern circus, finds its roots in the mechanical and its heart in the stories of American ingenuity.
