Totally Tamsen: Cirque Mechanics

Cirque Mechanics is an amazing nouveau Cirque troupe from Las Vegas comprised of only the very best circuses of the world -- Cirque du Soleil, The Moscow Circus and The Pickle Family Circus. Plus, the show's creator and director was a BMX freestyler (extreme cycling), so you can imagine just how daring the feats are.

The look and feel of the set is an industrial playground with levers, gears and gadgets. The performing company is really easy to work with and has already identified a list of tricks involving a visiting reporter, including a couple of teasers and some showcased acts.

Cirque Mechanics in Birdhouse Factory is currently playing at the New Victory Theater through December 14. For more information, visit www.newvictory.org/show.m?showID=1029994.
