MENDEL CENTER DISCOVERY SERIES
CIRQUE MECHANICS: BIRDHOUSE FACTORY
Saturday, Feb. 19, 2022, 8 PM
“the greatest contribution to the American circus since Cirque de Soleil,”
Spectacle Magazine
“Engrossingly Entertaining” ~ The New York Times
Enter the most unlikely setting for a circus: a factory. One where the workers are acrobats and the machines are circus props.
Welcome to the Birdhouse Factory! See a contortionist perform on a turntable powered by unicyclists. Be captivated by the trapeze artist powered by the spins of an acrobat inside a giant wheel. Be stunned as the trampoline wall artist defies the laws of physics. And be enchanted by the story of laughter, love, flight, and birdhouses.
Cirque Mechanics has quickly established itself as a premiere American circus, with its unique approach to performance, inspiring storytelling, and innovative mechanical staging.
This event supported in part by the Gast Young People’s Performance Series Endowment
