state PEDALPUNKThe mesmerizing Cirque Mechanics will perform their unique steam punk inspired circus show, Pedal Punk at The State Theatre of Ithaca on Sunday, October 23rd at 7:00pm.

Combining traditional circus disciplines with bicycles on a cycling inspired set, Pedal Punk describes their show as a rowdy circus where the mischief is on wheels.  Fun for all ages, Spectacle Magazine hailed Pedal Punk as "The greatest contribution to the American circus since Cirque du Soleil"!

In Pedal Punk we experience the excitement, artistry and thrill that occurs when a zany bike shop mechanic interacts with cyclists and bikes and repairs more than broken pieces.  He creates wondrous machines that come to life and inspires the cyclist in all of us to unite with our inner Pedal Punk.   Creative Director Chris Lashua spent most of his career on a BMX bike and inside a German Wheel.  This new production showcases his innate passion and fascination for all things bicycles and cycling. The synergy between man and machine, the hallmark of Cirque Mechanics, is magnificently exposed in Pedal Punk.  It is that synergy that The New York Times called "exceptional, evocative, eye-catching and grossly entertaining…in a word, excellent."
